Is Saccone an establishment Republican or a polarizing Bannonite loon? I don't know very much about that region of PA.

The latter, with a side of being so lazy he legitimately fell asleep in the state legislature once.
So he's a kook who would fail to make the runoff if he ran in my House district (beaten by David Clifford (R-Long Beach, CA) for the second runoff spot)?

Definately, unless Ryan and co. buys him a spot.
Not even Paul Ryan and co. could buy him the second runoff spot. That district is D+13, where Democrats would pick the GOP candidate. Enough Democrats would cross over and handily put Clifford ahead of Saccone.

He was nominated by party officials, which ought to tell you something about the PAGOP.
Why wasn't there a primary?

Well, Saccone has the advantage of not being a kiddie diddler.
Don't speak too soon.

If Saccone wins the special, would he win the new PA-14 regular election?

Not to throw cold water on this, but remember that Jon Ossoff had lots of momentum and a number of polls showing him in the lead in the GA-6 special.  Don't count your chickens before they hatch.

I don't recall ever seeing a poll showing Ossoff ahead, though I may be wrong. But Lamb is nothing like Ossoff. Lamb is a perfect fit for the district he is running in. Ossoff, on the other hand, was a carpetbagger and never lived in the district. He was also never a really good campaigner.

I think we need to stop drawing parallels between the two. Lamb is a genuinely good candidate while Ossoff was just fake and doomed from the start. It took Jon losing for Atlas to realize that he was a bad candidate.
Speaking of carpetbaggers like Ossoff, does Gil Cisneros (D-Newport Beach) have a good chance of winning in CA-39?

Could Saccone win a House primary or not?
