    @LuFins-Dad nope, he didn't. He said, basically, it was "legal."

    He also waffled, a lot, on fracking. It was a "I was against it before I was for it" moment.

    The whole thing is weird, all he needs to do is say “I’m Sorry” and he refuses to do it. Even the guy he pulled the gun on says he doesn’t have hard feelings. Hell, I think he even said he’s hoping Fetterman wins (which again shows just how bad of a candidate Oz is).

      This article is nothing. The comments, however, tell the tale.

        Fetterman's camp is blaming his performance on errors in the closed captions.

        Do they even have that in the US Senate?

          Lord, I hope not. But it would explain a lot, I suppose.

              BTW, just remember it's Dr. Jill and at the debate, Mr. Oz. Some doctors are more important than others.

                @Jolly so I wasn’t the only one to have noticed that, eh?

                I wonder if this was something that was discussed in the pre-debate negotiations.

                  CNN, once again, covers the news, with a pillow, because it might reflect badly on a Democrat.

                  It was tough’: Fetterman supporters voice concern that debate performance will sway undecided voters

                  Democrat John Fetterman’s debate performance has intensified the focus on his recovery from a stroke, leading some supporters to worry that his current post-stroke limitations could affect his narrow lead in the critical Pennsylvania Senate race against Republican Mehmet Oz.

                  If Fetterman’s showing changes the trajectory of the race, the debate could have nationwide ramifications, with Pennsylvania representing the best chance for Democrats to pick up a Senate seat in the evenly divided chamber. A CNN poll conducted by SSRS and released earlier this week found that 51% of likely voters support Fetterman, compared to 45% for Oz, an advantage narrowly outside of the survey’s margin of error. And a CBS News poll also released this week found a tightening race, with 51% of likely voters in Pennsylvania backing Fetterman and 49% backing Oz.

                  And there, at the bottom, in the very last, the 51st paragraph, we have CNN's medical specialist.

                  “Fetterman’s residual neurological injury is substantial,” Reiner said. “Much greater than his campaign has led the public to believe. It’s more than just processing hearing. It’s incredibly sad to watch.”

                  Oh...

                    I find it interesting that so many in Pennsylvania will vote a man into office with obvious impairments.

                    OTIH, they say Feinstein is suffering from dementia.

                                The Fetterman camp says that he didn't (cough) perform up to expectations because of a teleprompter malfunction.

                                Oz's camp responds:

                                1. The 'prompter was checked out by your guys.
                                2. We gave you two opportunities to work with it before the actual debate, and you didn't show for one of them.
                                3. We are happy to participate in a second debate, and YOU can choose the 'prompter and the tech.

                                    But, since I don't want to play favorites (LOL), read about Strom Thurmond and how the shape he was in during the last years of his Senate.

                                        It's remarkable Fetterman is still in the race. His health, speech, cognition, who knows. Also, the baggy clothes.

                                          the baggy clothes.

                                          C'mon, man. You look like you stumbled out of a bar. If you're going to bother to wear a necktie, at least wear it properly.

                                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
