Honestly just watching the graphic off the side as Oz is talking is funny. Oz isn't neccessarily a bad speaker in this case and actually comes across as serious but that graphic just completely contradicts that.

PA-SEN is now safe D. #Populist Jon Tester destroys all hat, no cattle Jersey Oz.

The only question left is how much Fetterman will win Potter county by.

Wild fact I just learned: if Fetterman wins, it'll only be the third time since the birth of the Republican Party that PA has been represented by two Democrats. There was one short stretch from 1945-1947 and an even shorter stretch when Arlen Specter switched parties, and that's it. Potential history in the making here!

Yeah, while Class III has been rough for Democrats in general recently, the Class III PA seat has really been cursed for them. It’ll be interesting to see if they can actually pull it off this year.

Fetterman seems like a force of nature based on that rally. Oz seems like just a leaf in the wind. Of course a lot can change but Oz is by far the weakest Republican candidate they could have nominated.

Dr. Oz - a multi-millionaire - begging for money on Fox News is certainly something.

[MATTROSE94]

Fetterman isn't winning by 20 he will win by 6.5 and Casey will win by 6.5 but it's won't be that close

We would have lost if McCormick was nominated he was averaging plus 5 over Fetterman

I have John Fetterman winning 49-47, though my prediction may change either in John Fetterman favor or to Dr. Oz’s favor as the election gets closer.

Dr. Oz is running a bad campaign and things improved for the Democrats this week on the economic and legislative front. Republicans I still think pick up 3 Senate seats (Nevada, Arizona, and New Hampshire), but Raphael Warnock I think will barely survive and John Fetterman will likely pull through by the skin of his teeth. 52-48 Republican Senate is where it stands as of this week.

But I was told that Fetterman’s crossover appeal was a myth?!

Tbf that's very anecdotal and registration can lag very heavily. A lot of rural ultra-Trump counties in Appalachia are still majority registered Ds. And no matter what there are bound to be a handful of Biden-Oz or Trump-Fetterman voters out there.

I mean not all Trump voters are lost causes. Casey and Wolf showed enough of them are willing to vote downballot D to win, even post Trump. Obviously less now, but I can't imagine polarization sweeping an entire 12% of the 2018 electorate away.

Would you say even weaker than Barnette at this point

Barnette was the strongest of the three imo. She doesn't have the carpet bagger label and was more authentic

[free my dawg]

Barnette also didn't have the Romney angle of having a connection to outsourcing. There's a huge contrast between "Make more sh*t in America" and "McCormick wants to make more sh*t in China".

I would argue that she was the only candidate who could beat Fetterman.

Oz is in fact quite serious and is speaking well, but Fox had to ruin it by having the wacky ad on the side.
The ad itself looks awful. Its "Nancy Had a Little Lamb" energy is too strong, lol.

Again, one of the more underrated possible attacks against Oz that Fetterman & co. don't seem to really be focusing on right now is that a DOCTOR continues to mock Fetterman for his stroke recovery.

Here, he implies that Fetterman "avoided the campaign trail for 90+ days" (which isn't true), but the implication here is that Fetterman should... not have recovered from his stroke? This is quite possibly the most egregious "attack" yet from Oz, especially considering he's a medical professional

The way he's mocked someones stroke recovery has been disgusting to say the least

"...and you call yourself a doctor?"

I'm not sure what's worse about this video - Dr. Oz randomly strolling around a supermarket picking out food and complaining it costs $20 despite being a millionaire (also, Crudites, really? way to talk to the average person!) - or the fact that he's not even sure which PA supermarket he's at (Wegmans or Redners), so decides to mash them together for "Wegners")

Wow, as one with a heart condition, Fetterman most definitely sounds like he has one, and one that is worse than mine. He is really struggling to find the air to speak, which is what happens when you heart is not pumping enough oxygen into your blood. Very sad. I empathize with the man.

Wegmans is heaven on earth, I love those supermarkets.
