New Polls Suggest Oz Narrowing Gap in Pennsylvania Senate Race
Breitbart ^ | 21 Aug 2022 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 08/21/2022 2:55:03 PM PDT by conservative98

Two new polls of the U.S. Senate race in Pennsylvania suggest that the race may be closer than previous polls — and pundits — have suggested.

The race between Lt. Gov. John Fetterman (D) and Trump-endorsed Dr. Mehmet Oz (R) is being closely watched. Sen. Pat Toomey (R) is retiring, giving Democrats an opportunity to pick up a seat and thwart Republican ambitions to take control of the upper chamber of Congress.

Fetterman has led Oz in most polls, often by double digits. However, the race may be tightening.

One poll, by former Republican internal pollster Carleton Polling, suggests that Fetterman is less than one point ahead:

Not when you are through the rabbit hole unreality of modern politics. If you’re a doctor, you can show sympathy for him, recommend a regimen of relaxation and leisure ‘til he’s recovered, and then say that he’d do less damage then, because his politics are archaic, in line with Brandon and Soros, and that both he, and the country, would be better off for his retirement from politics.

John Fentanyl is in over his head! John couldn’t carry Dr. Oz’s jockstrap! In three weeks my dead grandmother could beat John Fentanyl. There Is one person in this state that needs Dr. Oz more than anybody else and that’s John Fentenol. Mr. cardiomyopathy it’s hereditary and he refused to take care of it. In 2017 he knew he was in trouble and he walked away. John genetics load the gun lifestyle post to trigger. And you pulled a 12 gauge shotgun right out of your ass and pointed right at your own head. Harvard graduate my ass.

> He has to attack Fetterman. <

Right! But the Oz ads I’ve seen so far don’t even mention Fetterman. Instead they talk about how Oz is an “outsider”. Well, Fetterman is an outsider, too. So there is no differentiation, making those Oz ads kinda worthless.

Trump’s endorsement got OZ the nomination. Right now it looks like the GOP stays at 49 with OZ getting stomped. If that happens Trump will own the Senate loss.

> Oz could film commercials in Braddock, PA, where Fetterman was Mayor for 14 years. It is a ruins - crumbling, decrepit, decaying, etc. - proof of Fetterman’s “accomplishments.” <

EXCELLENT ADVICE!

I know Braddock very well, and I’m a bit embarrassed that I never thought of this. Such a commercial would be very effective!

Side note to Dr. Oz: If you decide to follow Montaignes Cat‘s superb suggestion, be sure to take plenty of security with you. Braddock sure ain’t Hollywood.

This should be a slam dunk. Rittenberg is medically unfit.

My gosh your name is appropriate poison pill. 87,000 arms IRS agents that John would’ve voted for. 13 guys convicted of murder he gets them out of jail he has a Willie Horton moment. The hits keep coming on big John so far in the last three days there’s been about five good ones . Only thing Dr. Oz has to do with his guy is get him into a debate. One debate and it’s over. John had to bring a 12 gauge shotgun go looking for a black guy in 2013 for a disturbance problem. Why does a guy who 6 feet eight need a 12 gauge shotgun? The same guy who’s afraid to debate dr Oz because he’s basically a coward!

He lived off his parents well into his 40s. Oz worked his way through med school and was a productive taxpaying member of society long before then.

That's a fact that needs to be hammered home.

Is there anybody else smelling blood? I’m getting to feeling that the Long knives are out for big John. And it’s about time. You know we really don’t need Dr. Oz to win. Because John is so bad. John Fredericks said the Youngkin campaign did not sanction him in Virginia. He ran a separate campaign without the approval of Youngkin. But he motivated every Trump voter in the state of Virginia. Youngkin took care of the voter registration crap with the cheating. We have enough Trump voters in Pennsylvania to get the job done. Do you think the Democrats are wild about big John?

I agree. But I recall many years ago when somebody (in Midwest?) won an election even though he had died prior to voting. A dead person should be disqualified from winning.

Fetterman is evil and OZ is stupid. In this case I would go with OZ since McConnell isn’t for him..but I don’t live in PA and I wouldn’t cheat like the Dems

RINOs are in season through the primaries . Folks had a fair chance at Oz , and bagged many others, then. So did Mitch McConnell who also was in the anti-Oz camp. During the general RINO hunting should be highly selective. Back bench RINOs, who'll vote for us more often than the Rat alternative, but against us more than we wish should be allowed to win... until the next primaries. Spend your dislike of them on recruiting future primary opposition.

High profile RINOs, those causing harm beyond their bad votes careful thought. If knocking out one would leave adequate good Senators to control the Senate AND removing that one from the GOP caucus could flip the leadership vote to our side then it might be worthwhile. But if gives the Rats Senate control, when the alternative would be RINO control it's a bad deal. If it leaves RINOs in control of leadership and the Rats one seat closer to regaining Senate control it may not be worth it. Rats have done significant harm in votes where having flipped one Rat for one RINO probably would haven't prevented it. And much as many are mad at Mitch now we should recall how well he did getting Trump judges confirmed. They haven't all done as we wished every time, but we are certainly better overall for them. Can you think of ANY Rat Senator who's done anything comparably good? So we can't claim Mitch has been 100% bad. He'll likely retire in 4 years, might sooner if we can vote him out the leadership.

I agree 100% that PA folks should vote for Oz. I’m also saying he was a horrible choice. Pennsatucky Republicans are not going to vote for a Harvard educated Muslim. Thinking they would is a major unforced error.

You should go take a look at Braddock PA. Place is really really beat up. 90% of the population has left. John has been there for 14 years the place is grotesque. i’m planning on taking a virtual reality trip to Braddock PA tonight. And from what I can see it’s not going to be pretty. The guys who said dr. Oz should go there and photograph and do a show from there is 100% right. Some places are so bad they’re good not this one is just plain bad. How is this guy going to relate to Montgomery county in Bucks County? And he lives with his mommy and daddy till he was 50. John the hits are going to just keep coming.
