Who is a worse candidate: Herschel Walker or Dr. Oz?

They're both bad, but at least when Oz threw everything and the kitchen sink to Fetterman, it did some damage. Walker is just luckier that Georgia has more of a Republican lean than Pennsylvania, although his response to his scandal have been really bad. So I guess Walker.

I mean, Walker is more outwardly scandal-prone, but Oz is the one who has the GOP spending $40M+ against Fetterman and yet his own favorables are nearly -20 a month out from the election (with Fetterman net positive in nearly every poll)

[BG-NY]

One is going to win by 3+, one is going to lose by 5+.

[Senator Incitatus]

I said this pretty early on, but Oz is a stable terrible candidate (with all of the obvious problems on the surface) while Walker is an unstable weak candidate (with the potential for a solid win or a disastrous collapse). As events have unfolded, it appears that Walker's chickens have come home to roost; he is the worse candidate now.

Walker is a worse candidate now that his skeletons are out of the closet. Oz would actually be a much worse senator, while Walker would just be Generic R in practice.

[Pericles]

Walker seems slightly more likable, Oz is not only a terrible person but he comes across as a total fake and is an out of touch rich guy that doesn't relate to the voters he's supposed to be running to represent.

[Progressive Pessimist]

I used to say Oz since Walker comes across as more genuine in believing the asinine nonsense he spews, but now it's Walker. Oz has lots of little objectionable things about him that add up but Walker had those too and now that's in addition to one of the worst scandals any GOP candidate can have, and even more so in a post-Dobbs environment.

Yet another one of the GOP's easiest pickup opportunities has now become a near-inevitable loss since they didn't properly recruit or vet the candidates that were nominated. Trump's thumb on the scale of certain races this year is like if Midas' thumb turned that scale into pure fecal matter.

I mean, they are both probably going to hell but Walker takes the cake. I hope people connect the dots between their policies and character sooner than later!

Oz is more ridiculous and memeable, but when it comes to electoral performance Walker is probably worse.

This is a very good way of putting it.

[Real Texan Politics]

Oz's only "real" scandal is basically a nothingburger at this point; not like Fetterwoman can run a campaign that's not about New Jersey and crudites to save his life.

Walker is the worse candidate, although at least he's actually admitted to the scandals and has made an attempt to come off as a "changed man." Will it work? 11/8 will be the judge of that.

[Reactionary Libertarian]

Herschel Walker is the worst swing state GOP nominee other than Don Bolduc.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Walker bye far

[Tekken_Guy]

Walker is definitely a worse candidate, but he’s also better positioned to be pulled across by the environment given Georgia’s polarization (whereas Oz is more likely to win on his own merits).

[Del Tachi]

Oz is going to win and the GA-SEN runoff is a tossup.
