Dr. Monica Wehby won the GOP nomination for U.S. Senate, and will face incumbent Jeff Merkley in November.
Republican voters chose Wehby over state Rep. Jason Conger. Wehby had the backing of the Washington establishment and much of the money in the race. Conger of Bend was supported by social conservatives and many of the Republicans in the state Legislature.
Wehby got off to a strong start but stumbled in the final week, when police reports came to light showing her ex-husband and a former boyfriend called police to report that she was harassing them as their relationships fell apart. No charges came from either claim.
The reports may have affected some voters' decisions, but likely came too late to shift the outcome.
I don’t think it will hurt McDaniel much simply because it has now come out that the Cochran campaign sat on it for a week or more, trying to figure out the best way to use it against McDaniel, but with Barbour controlling a lot of institutions in Mississippi, who knows?
McDaniel did not know this blogger. He had been attending McDaniel events, but there is no personal connection between the two.
Well, I have a hunch we’ll win Michigan, and I’d say at this point we’re more likely to lose the Arkansas race than the Louisiana one. The GOP is totally fumbling the ball against Pryor and Reid is dumping in cash.
Heck, I voted yesterday, couldn’t be happier.
I’m not in Oregon, and even if I was, I would not vote for this whackjob lady. I stopped voting for RINOs, because they do nothing to advance the Conservative agenda, they only advance the cause of the left and ever expanding government.
Every time I hear something about Wehby, it inspires a facepalm. She may be the most incompetent Senate candidate in the nation. Here’s her latest: http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/doctor-oregon-gop-senate-candidates-health-plan-plagiarized?s=mobile
That haughty statement from her spokesman was worthy of one of Obama’s press secretaries. Maybe her spokesman should have sniffed “Dr. Wehby is too busy performing brain surgery on sick children to *devote any time at all to figuring out why she wants to run for the Senate, much less what she would do if she won*.”
The two things that Wehby is sure about are that she supports same-sex “marriage” and abortion on demand.
Wow, pathetic pathetic candidate. Rank amateur, clueless.
It’s a shame, Jason Conger would have had a shot at that seat.
Oregon, NJ, and maybe even IL might be in play with better candidates.
