Right. The evidence must all be in that poster's head, because I haven't seen any produced yet.

This could be a defining moment for the country. If anyone could vote for Fetterman, in good conscience, based upon the man’s core beliefs, then god help Pennsylvania. It’s not about anything, except core beliefs. The PA voters get what they deserve.

What about Oz? He’s further left than Obama and running as a GOP’er

You could be right, similar to how he pushed cures he knew were fraudulent.

I get what you are saying. This is exactly what I had been saying about Trump when he ran.

Once he won he was actually worse than I expected.

Yes they do, and let them reap the consequences. I have no pity for those that suffer the consequences of what they vote for….much like we’re seeing the last 17+ months.

No Aghan debacle, no skyrocketing Bidenflation, no border crisis, etc…, and no war with because Trump. Just mean tweets, and we’ve seen the consequences of voting with hurt feelings.

Fetterman, especially after his stroke, much like Sleepy Joe, will be entertaining to watch, however. Interesting how cognitive ability isn’t so important to Dem voters.

After seeing Fetterman's performance, it's beyond me how anyone can vote for him. If you don't like Dr Oz, stay home. But this guy?

Even the Washington Post editorial board realizes that John Fetterman needs to come clean about his health, and that he needs to debate Dr. Oz:

Quote:
Since returning to the campaign trail, Mr. Fetterman has been halting in his performances. He stammers, appears confused and keeps his remarks short. He has held no news conferences. Mr. Fetterman acknowledges his difficulties with auditory processing, which make it hard for him to respond quickly to what he’s hearing. He receives speech therapy — and we wish him a speedy, full recovery — but the lingering, unanswered questions about his health, underscored by his hesitation to debate, are unsettling.

The Fetterman campaign squandered credibility by concealing from the public for two days after his stroke that he had been hospitalized. It waited weeks longer to reveal a more complete picture of his medical history, including that he had been diagnosed in 2017 with cardiomyopathy. Mr. Fetterman had a pacemaker with a defibrillator implanted after the stroke. The campaign’s response to questions about Mr. Fetterman’s health is to point to a doctor’s note, released more than 14 weeks ago, which said “he should be able to campaign and serve in the U.S. Senate without a problem” if he takes his medications and exercises.

That’s not good enough. Mr. Fetterman is asking voters for a six-year contract without giving them enough information to make sound judgments about whether he’s up for such a demanding job. We have called for full disclosure of health records from candidates for federal office in both parties, including Donald Trump and Joe Biden, and we believe Mr. Fetterman should release his medical records for independent review.

Like I said, he has to release his full medical record. The voters of PA needs to know the extent of his stroke and what caused it. If he uses drugs that caused the stroke it should be known.


Drug users avoids doctors. The doctor told him 5 years ago that he needed to be on high blood pressure medication, lose weight, change his diet and constantly be monitor by the doctor. For 5 years he refused to see his doctor or take the medication. Drug Users refuses to go to the doctor because they don't want to be lecture or let the doctor find out what's in your system. Doctors take this serious.

He has to come clean. 6 years as a U.S. Senator is a long time and the voters needs to know his true condition and if he is going to make it. Why did he refused to go to his doctor for 5 years and didn't take high blood medication or lose weight? If he can't follow the direct life and death advice from his doctor and the medication how can he be U.S. Senator and take care of the needs of PA? I really suspect drug abuse.

Could be drug abuse or I'm wondering if his stroke was after a covid vax booster. Or just over weight.

My whole thing is I would want an individual to hold accountable. The interns, staff and party officials he would delegate to don't count. Just put the DNC on the ballot. Be honest about it but the show of 'a' candidate is waste of everyones time and misleading because they are selling an individual not groupies.
