Rick Saccone finally did what most people thought that he'd do within a short period of time and that was to concede the US House race to his challenger, Democrat Conor Lamb after a recount failed to give him enough votes to win.


HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Republican Rick Saccone conceded defeat to Democrat Conor Lamb on Wednesday night in a closely watched special election in Pennsylvania, more than a week after the end of a remarkable race that has shaken GOP confidence ahead of the November midterm elections.
Lamb, 33, claimed the seat by about 750 votes in a Republican-held district that President Donald Trump won by almost 20 percentage points just 16 months ago. Lamb, who struck a moderate tone during the race and was backed by the district’s influential labor unions, beat Saccone, a state lawmaker who had compiled one of the most conservative voting records in Pennsylvania’s Legislature.

What he will prove is that any Democrat is a Pelosi Democrat no matter how conservative or Republican they sound in order to fool the voters. McCain proves that any RINO is essentially a Pelosi/Schumer Democrat.

Lamb had to run as fast and far away as he could from the Democrats , to win the seat for the Democrats.

He is the ONLY pro-gun, pro-life, pro-tax cut Democrat who will even come close to running this year, or any other in the forseeable future...

I will let others smudge the line between what is true and what is not.

It will not take long for the hidden truth to be revealed. Just one critical vote will do it.

What, exactly, has John McCain done or said to disqualify himself from being considered a Republican? What offense against Republican principles has the man committed? Please be specific.

McCain has a long history of siding with and voting with Democrats and against Republican proposals.

Please review the meaning of the word "specific".

Truth does not seem to be what you are concerned about.

None specifically that I'm aware of; but it seems based on feedback from others in this forum that due to his voting record and his positions on various issues, that he was awarded the title of RINO.

Would he ever switch? I doubt it, this was just thrown out there for discussion.

Did you mean "There is no grey area at all with you, is there?"
Double negative equals a positive, as in "Ain't no".
Commas exist for a reason, as do question marks.
You appear poorly educated.
Tighten up.

In this case, it is evidence of something to come rather than a truth about something that has occurred. Please do continue smudging.
