His real challenge will be the Philadelphia suburbs. And he's a bit scary looking for the Philadelphia suburbs, which married with his progressive left politics, will not help him. Oz, by contrast, looks normal.

It will be interesting to see how it plays out. Both men are deeply flawed for different reasons. If it ends up being a straight party line vote I give the Rs the advantage in a red tide year.


Lol both men are deeply flawed…GTFO.

Fetterman is left of Bernie and outright a communist. PA sees him for what he is and won't be elected.


Haha what? Has Fetterman called for workers to seize the means of production? Why is he running for senator if he advocates a stateless, classless society?

Oz doesn’t live in Pa and Lamb’s degrees will work against him.

I do actually think Fetterman is going to win. I base this solely on my PA relatives who all really like him even the republicans. He's more popular than Dr Oz.

He wants to legalize pot. That's a winner right there.


Interesting. My PA relatives will never vote D, especially not Fetterman. I can see him being popular with the type of voter who voted for Obama and Trump, as well as younger voters.


If he can get Pittsburgh, Philly and a few other areas like a chunk of the Lackawanna and Lehigh valley voters he's got it.

As for primary debates, Fetterman committed to the 3 main televised debates that will be coming up.


Thank you for sharing this info, PP.

I am a Black woman from Pittsburgh with a ton of family still in PA. I really like Fetterman, and I was curious why he didn’t show up for that debate. Good to know it was a sham.

Also, I am seriously pissed at Lamb for exploiting that old-ass incident that has been explained by Fetterman and forgiven by the other party. As a Black person, I find Lamb’s use of that situation disgusting. It makes you wonder why he can’t win on his record.

Fetterman has a history of helping disenfranchised communities. It’s a no-brainer.


He was elected mayor of Braddock, which is majority black, and led police reforms to focus on de-escalation, toward reducing gun violence and improving relations and trust between police and the black community. He also did a lot to improve the community and provide opportunities for black businesses and to provide hope for a community that had otherwise been abandoned.

You're delusional and you need to drop that ludicrous right wing nonsense of "anyone I disagree with is a communist."

This has come up and been addressed many times before including on Young Turks. He's definitely not a communist and while he stumped for Bernie he is a progressive Dem and doesn't even identify as democratic socialist.

It's not a good-faith debate, it's a cheap stunt by Conor Lamb.

How would a good faith debate differ from this one? Seriously trying to understand.


Conor Lamb was trying to use this debate in some kind of warped attempt to try and paint Fetterman as a violent racist because of an event in 2013 where Fetterman detained someone and waited for police after hearing gunshots and seeing someone running away. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/09/us/politics/john-fetterman-gun-black-jogger.html

That’s a valid issue, no? So Fetterman won’t debate at all because he may be asked this question?


There is no "may." It wasn't set up as a policy debate. Lamb set up a sham debate framed specifically around that one item, a publicity stunt disguised as a debate. I'm sure there will be normal debates.
