Oh no. Hope he’s okay. I wonder if we are all gonna be having minor strokes after recovering from covid.

I do not see any discussion of this being connected to covid? Where has it said that?

Anyhow, this is pretty devastating news but I do believe he can be OK and I still believe he is the strongest candidate.

DP not sure he had covid, but it is true that there there is a huge increased risk of strokes and heart events for those who have had covid: https://healthcare.utah.edu/healthfeed/postings/2022/01/covid19-increasing-stroke-risks.php

Being from Mt Lebanon means he has a lot of Pittsburgh support, even though Fetterman was mayor of Braddock. But once Fetterman knocks Lamb out of the primary, then Pittsburgh will go all in on Fetterman. And Pittsburgh has a lot more votes than the rest of western PA. Fetterman is going to have the East and West and Oz will have the middle of the state. As long as Fetterman can lock up the suburban votes and pull out some of the middle state voters like around York, Lancaster, Harrisburg and State College, he'll win. The key is to get a significant portion of the middle state small city votes and he's been working on that. His support in the small cities is much like Biden's which is why I think he'll do as well as Biden did.

Off topic- but is it weird that I find Fetterman sexy?

Which shows you how stupid most people in PA are.


“Philadelphia in the east, Pittsburg in the west, and “Deliverance” in the middle”.

That’s Pennsylvania

I thought the middle was Pennsyltucky (according to my PA friends).

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.

My Philly suburb friends and family like Fetterman. Authenticity is important to that crowd, and he has it in spades. Pretty boy Oz from North Jersey doesn’t stand a chance.

Anecdotal. Are we to think it means anything?

Hill had an article which quoted an anonymous Democratic politician who said while Fetterman will win the suburbs he also won't do nearly as well as Biden. And that is what matters.
