They need to discredit him, and fast. Instant name recognition and an outsider.

A friend (MD PhD) of mine has known him since residency and says he’s smart AF and was a superb doctor. She disagrees with some stands he’s taken over the years but still is a fan. Even chose him to operate on her father.

@Jolly said in The Wizard of Oz:

As long as he's an elected Republican, I don't care if he has cloven hooves and horns on his head.

Think she would switch parties?

I haven't been following the Pennsylvania senate race all that closely other than to be aware that the Democrat candidate (Fetterman) had a stroke a while ago, and at his last public appearance, he appeared, well, Biden-esque.

OTOH, I know little about Oz (R-Oprah) other than he is was a credible board-certified heart surgeon. His medical credentials seem solid and he has had multiple academic appointments.

BUt...he's said some pretty strange things, which make me wonder.

It’s easy to imagine an objective score for beauty which had high correlation with subjective scores. But the more sperm for ugly people thing is wacky.
