Look -- we're choking back TEARS:

[1] Trump’s SuperPAC is spending MILLIONS to defeat John Fetterman. If he succeeds, Joe Biden LOSES the Senate.

[2] But everything just changed! Yesterday, CNN said that Pennsylvania is the MOST LIKELY Senate Seat to flip in 2022!!

[3] We’re doing something huge too! We’re launching a MASSIVE Ad campaign for Fetterman. And we’re going BIG:
We’re rolling out ads EVERYWHERE:
CNN. ABC. ESPN. MSN.

Seems like a strange story for the corporate media to let out.

is an awfully simple-minded approach to the world.

One data point is the whole game for you?

I'd think you could think harder than that.

Linking Oz to being in line with Josh Shapiro and Fetterman is a deranged far left radical (goodness), which in effect means they are running commercials to get a split vote (Shapiro and Oz).

I think the Repukes know Mastriano is toast, he's not electable in this state, so they are tossing a fly ball to try to get the Senate by suggesting Oz has more in common with Shapiro than Fetterman does.

Also, Can't wait for the next "Senate Leadership Fund" commercial that says Fetterman rapes babies and kills blind puppies for sport.

while Oz clings to Shapiro to try to sneak in ... dirty game, I always say Republicans move to the middle and cling to Democrats on issues to try to confuse voters ... there it is.

I watched a brutal ad, I think it was during a sporting event. It showed a poor dog strapped on a cart and the narrator said that the dog suffered for 39 days before Oz killed it.

It was a brutal ad, not sure who sponsored it.

The polls that show Fetterman/Oz close are BS. The Magats are desperate, they need Pa. Oh, I already voted for Fetterman.

NC, AZ, NV, WI, OH, GA. Having to shore up a once 'locked' pick-up is not a good thing. It is not like we have unlimited $ to put into all these races.
