NEWTOWN, Penn. — John Fetterman, the state lieutenant governor, has won Pennsylvania’s high-voltage race for an open Senate seat, defeating celebrity TV doctor Mehmet Oz, bringing an end to one of the nastiest and most expensive campaigns of the year as both parties treated it as a potential tipping point for control of the chamber.

Fetterman will succeed Sen. Pat Toomey, a Republican who opted against seeking re-election.

very discouraging for the country -who in their right mind would vote for Fetterman-apparently every Dem will vote for any Dem any time-if we can’t win in this environment we need to learn what they are doing right in Florida-they get out the GOP vote and independents who vote conservative

Certainly seems like he will be, unless he strokes out for good!
I don’t see anybody else up on that stage accepting the apparent outcome, other than morticia

Manchin should be pressed to switch parties. Joe recently promised an end to coal. That should be Manchin’s cue.

Crappy candidate. This one is on the RNC, which had years to prepare a replacement for Rino Toomey.

I have said it since the 2020 election. When Honest President Trump was traded for Lying Joe Biden. The American voter will not tolerate an honest person Governing them. They prefer to be ruled by a crook. The more degenerate and perverse the better. The election of Fetterman and his ilk bears this out[Is proof of it].

Rats learned from past defeats and basically bought off Green Party candidates not to run in close races and be spoilers. When will the GOP try something similar to reduce the Libertarian spoilers? Today they made a difference in PA, GA and several other races.

I was believing the red wave, but said to my wife again and again that ridiculous as it was, Fetterman would win.

If you want a “good” explanation, keep in mind it was close and many people voted before seeing that awful debate by Fetterman.

But of course F was an absurd candidate, and that’s what we get in America.

No Red Wave—I called it, dang it. What ever the GOP does in The House will be stopped cold in the Senate. NOTHING WILL CHANGE. Who won tonight? Red China, Joe Biden and Mr. Zelensky. Who lost? The American People. The Demoncrats were right—this election had Democracy on the ballot—and Democracy Lost, big time. Now will come the punishing of the people as the Demoncrats take out their revenge. I predict:
1. Trump Arrested, villainized, and tossed in Jail. He will hang himself in his cell.
2. Eric and Don Jr. Also be arrested. Ivanka will flee to Isreal for safety.
3. Gas prices will go higher.
4. USA -UK and Polish Troops will go in for “Humanitarian” reasons to Ukraine. Occupy Odessa.
5. Biden ill give another 30 Billion to Ukraine.
6. Fox News will be silenced Tucker arrested.
7. Guns confinscated by Christmas.
8. Summer riots as foodstores are robbed clean by mobs.
We are in for dark times.

So was Hillary Clinton but she won a senate seat anyway. The voters who voted for Fetterman are apparently incapable of critical thinking, no matter who the Republican candidate was.

Can we kick Pennsylvania out of the United States and give it to Canada?

I was never convinced either Mastriano or Oz would win.
Both absolutely disappeared and let themselves be defined immediately after the primaries.
Neither fought back and counterpunched to demoRats and liberal PAC’s ridiculous ads against them since the primary. Mastriano was way more guilty of this, than Oz, but he was no counterpuncher by any means. M
I CANNOT believe the depth of Pennsylvania stupidity. It’s beyond comprehension!
