This can sometimes get tricky with controlled substances.

Yes, I agree 100%. Unfortunately, this is not unique to politics. It’s what happens when anything other than merit is considered when hiring someone… especially politicians.

I’m not necessarily disagreeing with you, but could you please explain to me why you think she could have a successful political future?

Let us not forget thalidomide! Yep, the good old days of quack doctors ruining lives… oh wait… that still happens all the time.

You’re spot on. All those peoples’ lives forever improved by icepick lobotomies. Completely safe and effective! Thank God for the experts!

Fair enough. I disagree, but I appreciate your sincere response. I wish more people on this sub could handle opinions other than their own without having to hide them in the -30s.

The last thing I want to do is start an argument or cause any discontent, but I do have one question for you. Hypothetically, if it were Governor and First Lady of PA Mastriano, would you still consider it a no big deal, good time had by all situation?

You’re 100% correct!

Why is this downvoted..? It’s factual and can be verified.

I grew up near Johnstown. I didn’t have much interaction with anyone from the eastern half of the state when I was growing up. I visited Philadelphia for the first time when I was 20. I joked with my friends how it was crazy that I’d been to 24 states by that time and I had never been to Philly. I didn’t notice the stark contrast that exists between those from eastern PA and those from western PA until my first year at Penn State. It’s more than just the Sheetz vs. Wawa feud. Pennsylvania is truly like two different states on a cultural level. To your point about the accents, many people also guessed that I was from the South when I was at school. Texas was the most common guess. Little did they know I grew up two hours away.
