Not a GOP leadership issue Mehmet Oz would have been a better option for the state Fetterman had mental issues that were addressed it was the voter iq issue.

Yes. The state and the country would have been much better off with another Republican senator. No doubt about that.
But Oz was an appalling candidate. He didn’t even live in Pennsylvania until right before the election. Fetterman’s ads were effective in pointing that out.
And Oz’s ads? They were ridiculous. They had him wandering around Pennsylvania factories with a stupid grin in his face. He looked like he was lost.
Fetterman had two weak points. One was his mental issues, as you noted. The other was that he was mayor of a crime-ridden town, Braddock. Oz’s people never made any significant attacks along those lines.
And one more thing. PA neighborhoods that had Trump signs out in 2020 had Fetterman signs out in 2022. Crazy, huh?
