After Saccone’s small-minded vitriol in the closing of the PA-18 special election, compare to his opponent, Conor Lamb (D), and his commentary the morning after the election:
“Look, I was at a lot of polling places yesterday with cars parked outside of them that had president Trump’s bumper sticker on them. So he’s a popular person here,” Lamb told CNN’s “New Day” on Wednesday. “But I think that what happens when you campaign in real life as much as possible is that those divisions go away. Everyone gave me a fair shake and I know that there are people that voted for the president who also voted for me. And, you know, I thank them for hearing me out.” [Politico]
I think Mr. Lamb has a bright political future ahead of him, if that’s what he wants. He speaks the language of inclusiveness, and, assuming he has follow-through, that will take him a ways.
