Holy shit. This Fetterman debate shit is devastating. Can’t bring myself to watch.
I can’t even remember the last time someone lost a debate so bad that it mattered. Ronnie got pretty beat up yesterday but even I could tell it wasn’t going to move the needle a bit.
Yeah, really really bad. If enough people care or are made to care by seeing the endless clips Oz will win, probably fairly easily. Bad night for democracy.
Yea…not good. I wasn’t able to watch but saw two clips so far. Pretty sure this debate will push Oz over the finish line. Hopefully he doesn’t carry mastriano over with him.
Mastriano isn’t coming withing 10 points of winning, I’m very confident on that. As bad as it was I’m not sure if it really swings it. A bunch of people have already locked in who they’re voting for and this won’t sway them one way or the other. Just hoping there’s not enough persuadable people who will hear about this and care enough to switch their votes because of it.
Hard to imagine anybody actually switching votes over something like this, but it’s easy to imagine someone that was planning on voting for Fetterman staying home.
Maybe, hopefully they still fear Mastriano enough to turn out to stop him and then vote for Fetterman anyway. Idk, I think we are biased by following it too closely but like I said, this will really put to the test if debates matter or not.
One good thing is that this was only broadcast on PHL17 in the Philadelphia market, and Verizon recently dropped that channel. So no Verizon customers had easy access to watch live. Obviously that doesn’t matter in 2022, but it certainly doesn’t hurt in this case.
