Export, Pennsylvania — For the first time in this election cycle, most of the people sitting around the restaurant bar casually watching the debate saw the depth of the effects of the stroke Lt. Gov. John Fetterman suffered in May when he began the debate Tuesday evening with a “good night” as his opening greeting.
It only got worse from there.
For 60 painful minutes, the York native and Harvard graduate, who had made his home in Western Pennsylvania for the last 20 years, struggled vividly with cognitive issues in handling the simplest of questions tossed his way during the debate.

he's the Lt. Gov of Pennsylvania!! so how did he even get that far up the ladder?! - did no one even suspect that he would have some incapacity following his stroke? did no one even care that he would have an incapacity following his stroke? guess they just needed a fill in because they have no viable candidates in Pennsylvania so, they elected him to be the fall guy - talk about a bunch of heartless ba _ _ _ _ ds they are in that state

The media have no shame, no journalistic integrity, and no honesty. They are simply arms of the DNC who repeat their talking points and bow to their wishes. They are literally propping up a mentally handicapped candidate who cannot possibly do his job as a Senator because otherwise a Republican will win. In the words of Elon Musk ‘let that sink in’.

Oz needs to run commercials of Uncle Festerman looking lost during the debate with the caption "unfit to serve."
The coverup by the press is only surprising if you've lived under a rock for the last 30 years.

All I can say is how tragic such a young person had to suffer such a devastating health issues as a stroke. It is sad to see.

Uncle Fester was a basket case before his stroke but many democrats love the concepts of no punishment for violent criminals and free stuff for everybody. Ideas like that can only come from people who have spent a long time in a basement being fed and clothed by others. Everyone claims that he did a wonderful job as mayor of Braddock, except for the citizens of Braddock. As Lieutenant Governor of Pennsylvania, he "worked from home." Getting rid of Fetterman, Wolf and Levine will be a champagne-level event for Pennsylvania.

Even if he were perfectly healthy, I would not vote for a man who never held a real job in his life.
He has no idea what the real world is like.

And so it begins......a report in my local (Lancaster, PA) rag that the election results for the PA Senate race may take several days to count:
"MCCLATCHY WASHINGTON BUREAU
WASHINGTON — If Pennsylvania’s tightening U.S. Senate race turns out to be as close as its current trajectory, it’s unlikely the winner will be apparent on the night of Nov. 8.
Election officials have begun warning the public that tabulations in many counties will proceed well into the next day and possibly beyond, due to restrictions workers face in processing mail-in ballots.sevetal
“We will not have unofficial results in Pennsylvania on Election Night and that’s a fact,” Leigh Chapman, Pennsylvania’s acting secretary of state, told McClatchy in an interview. “We’re expecting at least a few days for results to be final.”
We know what this means.....several days to find/create more votes for Fetterman.

Where do these people like Fetterwoman, Brandon and Kamalalala come from? The dem Party is full of lunatics but one would think they could find some loons more appealing than these train wrecks.

#8, by his own admission, Fetterman ignored medical advice in 2017, when he was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation, hypertension, and enlarged heart. At that time, he weighed 450 pounds/
He did bring his weight down, but refused to take medication for his heart-related problems.
He also has that big lump on his neck, right rear, which he hides with scarves and hoodies. The lump is probably a benign lipoma, but like many others, he ignores it. (watch an episode of Dr. Pimpl`e Popper)
So in May, 2022, just days before the democratic primary, he had a stroke, and had implanted a pacemaker to steady his heart beat, along with a defibrillator to take care of his irregular, potentially fatal heart beat irregularity. He aklso has been diagnosed with cardiomyopathy,
also called congestive heart failure.
In summary, he is a man who is really sick, especilly for his age, and is brain damaged from his stroke. And he may be as recovered as he is ever going to be. He should have withdrawn from the race when he had the stroke in May, and Conor Lamb or Kenyatta wwould have won the primary. Conor Lamb probably would beat Oz.
But he didn't, and deserves to lose to Oz,, given his obvious poor judgment. Daddy, or Soros, can fund him for two more years,

Fetterman is like Florence Foster Jenkins. A lady who tried to become an opera singer who was awful. Everyone knew it and cringed, but since she was a socialite they all went along with it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florence_Foster_Jenkins

The MSM is doing what they do best. Cover up and spout disinformation. They did the same thing when Pres. Truman ran for office the second time. The Press kept praising Dewey and did their best to sell him to the public. They also declared him the winner before the election was over. Remember the famous head line "DEWEY WINS". Truman got the last laugh.

It's worth noting that Fester won the primary by 30 points. Dems in every county picked him over Connor Lamb. Dems are attracted to circus sideshows who are gaming the system. Obama paved the way.

Have to throw in the graduated from Harvard, as if that alone qualifies him for office? It's more like a confederacy of ruthless dunces that got Fetterman to where he is today. Oh and a lot of brain dead union members.

He graduated from Harvard and then spent the next 20 years living with and off his parents? Did he not even bother to look for a job or did no one hire him? With that kind of resume, he wouldn’t even qualify to be dog catcher, even without the stroke.

He caused his own Stroke by believing all that Marxist Crap!
High Blood Pressure comes from many so many causes...one of those is stress.
Thinking Marxist and everything you support is in the dumper, now that's STRESS!
He blew a gasket and kept running......., plain and simple.
