A new poll, the first poll from Pennsylvania since John Fetterman’s disastrous debate performance, puts Dr. Oz up three points over Fetterman.
This isn’t much of a surprise, in fact it’s probably the beginning of a trend.

We all expected this, right?
This is an amazing detail:
You have to wonder if voters feel betrayed by the media for concealing Fetterman’s condition.
Stephen L. Miller made that point yesterday at the New York Post:
Media undermines their credibility again with Fetterman coverupGiven Pennsylvania Senate candidate John Fetterman’s disastrous debate performance Tuesday night and his campaign’s shameful coverup of his condition to voters, the question has to be asked: Where does Dasha Burns go for her apology from her own colleagues?When the NBC reporter had a one-on-one interview with the Democratic candidate this month, she noted two things that had her fellow journalists, both at her network and in her industry, up in arms. First, she revealed the Fetterman campaign demanded, as a condition of the interview, he be allowed to use captioning software that translated her questions to him on a computer. Fetterman had not done a single one-on-one, live or recorded interview, through the duration of his limited campaign, so this was eye-opening to voters and viewers. And she remarked that “in small talk” with Fetterman, “it wasn’t clear he understood what I was saying.”This led to a social media cavalcade of abuse directed at Burns for simply committing the act of noticing Fetterman’s condition.
If Oz pulls this off, you will hear a gnashing of teeth out of the beltway not heard since the fall of 2016.
