His wife fled his presence. She likely has had to go elsewhere to get “nookie” anonymously as he is most likely impotent.
Yup—the Democrats play chess while the Republicans play checkers.
This is typical “stupid Republican” stuff.
Finally some balls.
“ It Fetterman resigns by mid August, there will be a special election in November. Newly elected Senator is seated immediately. If it’s after, Shapiro’s appointee is Senator until the next statewide election, in 2024 I think”

I believe that’s correct except the Nov 2023 vote will likely be a “general election” since some state constitution questions are projected to be on the ballot. ‘lightman’ will have better knowledge on this than I have.
And don’t forget, of course, the ‘RAT Governor will make a temporary appointment to fill the seat until the election.
John Fetterman is clinically brain-dead. He breathes only on a respirator, and NO Democrat Socialist wants that image to get out in the public.
“Recovery” is about as likely as JFK walking out of Parkland Hospital in 1963 under his own unassisted control.
The continuing saga of John FetterGoon. The US Senator without a (functioning) brain.
The governor can appoint but I believe if it’s before August, then we would have a special election this year.
That’s how I understand it. I am in Pa. We could have both Senators up for election next year. No way Fetterman can carry out his duties.
A special election is held if he resigns before august 15th. After that date the governor appoints.
That would have screwed us quite a few times over the years.
No. It’s currently 48D, 3I that are basically D and 49R.
If he is removed and replaced with a new Republican senator, that makes it 47D, 3I/D and 50R. Even split. If we flip Manchin, it becomes a Republican Senate.
Yes, but their is a deadline. Fetterman is holed up to avoid the deadline for a special election. Once that date is past, Shapiro can appoint a new Senator if Fetterman steps down or dies. Some speculate that he’s already brain dead and on life support.
You only WISH the Pennsylvania Republican Party were composed of persons sufficiently sophisticated to follow the rules of checkers. What they are doing is playing Tiddly-Winks while the Democrat Socialists are playing their own perverted form of chess.
I don’t know for sure but I’ve read we want him to stay in office...
It’s an interesting situation. He can’t be forced to resign and for the time being his incapacity actually is helpful for our side.
That all said, fate has dealt him quite a blow. Wins nomination to a Senate seat he is likely to win and shortly after he has a stroke that renders him unable to actually serve as a Senator. I don’t blame him for being depressed—if that is really what he is being treated for.
Agree. At least don’t lay down and say “Sure, shucks, we’d hate to be seen as mean. Golly gee whiz,let it drag out to August and then let Josh appoint himself or Morticia.”
“No point in having an election between now and August, why heck we might win.”
We will never break through until we are unafraid of being mocked by Stephen Colbert and abused by liberal press.
I am glad to see this.
For D’s, a brain dead Democrat is better than the best Republican. They would elect him again if the election were held next week.
I was watching “Quest For Fire” last night. I believe I saw him on there.
You know the answer Jim there going to cue the movie Dave.
Too much "analysis paralysis" by a lot of freepers.
He was already brain-dead prior to the stroke! So if a retard has a stroke and suffers from brain damage.. what is most stupid than a retard?
