I think there are quite a few low-quality Republican candidates, both for House and Senate. Look at the great race Oz is running.

Quite a few low quality ones already there

I think the rot has gone so deep there is no saving it.
Like a gangrenous leg there is only one option.
It will be as hard as reforming police -- i.e., really effing hard. But I don't see a choice. We need a law enforcement agency that can investigate crimes across state boundaries.

We do , but it's not the FBI in it's current form.
Start from scratch with an agency with a very , very limited scope of operations and insanely tight oversight.
Limit their operations to investigative only. Unarmed as well. No tanks , no machine guns , no snipers, nothing.
They have shown that whenever they bring out the toys , innocents die.
When they asked Lon Horiuchi if he would take the shot that killed an an unarmed woman holding an infant again, he didn't even blink before he answered yes.
They are the Democrat's Gestapo .
I don't see how you reform that .

I believe that one of the things he said he would do that was on his list if he was elected was to make Constitutional Carry the law of the land. I think he claimed that other major events, such as Covid, took away his ability to focus on Constitutional Carry. I may be wrong, not the first time, definitely not the last. He did appoint three constitutional Supreme Court justices that have helped the 2A cause though.
This is a fantastic notion.
We already have a group that can do that. It's the US Marshall's.
The US did fine for more than half its existence without the FBI. We can shitcan them and move on.

Welp, I spoke a day too soon. Do wonders never cease? Looks good except that the Constitution seems not to apply to NYC... I suspect these 'CONDITIONS' are a remnant of pre-NYSRPA v. Bruen, and will eventually be updated to something else (for better or worse). Thanks CatSnoutSoup for the encouragement.

I'd disband the FBI and give the work back to the US Marshals Service. You know, where federal law enforcement was performed originally. The FBI has been corrupt since the days of Hoover.
Hoover was a piece of work.

Define fantastic in this sentence. You really love it? It will never happen? Or maybe both?

Yeah. People talk about liberals and how they'll endorse a pile of dog crap if it's got a D next to it. Then people endorse Oz here because "wuhhl, Drumpf likes him, so we gotta likes him!"
He's got a chance, but damn. I continue to worry that he's gonna implode somehow. He's his own worst enemy.
Democrats are mad Oz used a different word for vegetables, while their own candidate *is* a vegetable.

Some Bruen fallout, issued today in the Forth Worth division of the Northern District of Texas.
Federal judge Mark Pittman said the Texas prohibition on licensing carry for 18-20 year olds is unconstitutional under Bruen.

I argued against him and fought against him, but I will give him full credit (not personally, but for listening to whoever had his ear) for the best set of judicial appointments in my lifetime.

That's great. And when fence-sitters vote against him because he's out of touch and callous, somehow blame voting machines and such like people did 2 years ago.
He's still down anywhere from mid-single to double digits. The guy is his own worst enemy.
They're not mad. Oz stepped on his own dingus and the democrats are simply pointing at him and laughing.
There is a saying about Pennsylvania -- it's Pittsburgh on one side, Philadelphia on the other, and Pennsyltucky in the middle. Much of Pennsylvania is rural, blue collar, and economically depressed. I have a sister in Oil City and have spent a little time there. You start using the word "crudite" and the locals will either 1) not understand what you are saying or 2) understand what you are saying and think you are a pompous jerk.
Oz is not the kind of guy who can walk into a rundown shot-and-a-beer bar in Altoona and relate to the locals. Fetterman is wisely capitalizing on that weakness.

Correct, Oz should have jumped on his mistake and taped another commercial making fun of himself and highlighting his opponents far Leftists views and his resume.

Trump gave us Bruen and the defeat of Wade vs Roe with his judicial appointments. Trump was NOT a Politician and erred by assuming the swamp rats would do their duty as American citizens. Trumps greatest victory was exposing the swamp creatures and lamestream media for what they are, biased Leftist operatives more concerned with protecting their namby, pamby jobs and influence than doing the right thing or reporting the truth.
I'm a little perplexed at how long it has taken some NESers to realize that Oz is truly a dumbshit.

"This November, voters in Iowa will weigh in on a proposed state constitutional amendment that would make all gun regulations subject to strict scrutiny. The full text of the proposed amendment, which was approved by the state legislature in early 2021, is as follows (emphasis added):
The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. The sovereign state of Iowa affirms and recognizes this right to be a fundamental individual right. Any and all restrictions of this right shall be subject to strict scrutiny....
If Bruen’s test is indeed on par with, or tougher than, strict scrutiny, we can expect this fact to halt the recent spurt of strict-scrutiny constitutional amendments at the state level. Instead, we’re likely to see a broader shift where state courts increasingly use the Bruen test to evaluate challenges under state constitutional analogues to the Second Amendment, even in states without a strict rule that such analogous provisions are construed in tandem."

I'd rather see both - state level strict scrutiny amendments and Bruen get enforced as full THT scrutiny (stricter than strict)

I would not call him a dumbshit since he is a medical Dr. but he sure isn't a man of the people. That said Fetterman is a train wreck of a man and politician. I don't see how any informed voter could vote for him given his resume and medical history.
I know a lot of PhD and MD who have zero common sense. I’d call all of them dumbshits.
Oz is a fraud and a liar on top of that.

he has the requisite qualifications, he has a "D" on the ballot
