Fetterman’s Campaign Could Have Avoided This

October 26, 2022 By The Editors

In Spectator World, Ben Domenech takes the campaign staff and wife of John Fetterman to task for pushing their candidate out on stage for a debate when he was so clearly unprepared for such a challenge. Domenech writes:

Why would any campaign with any respect for their candidate participate in this farcical display that undermines trust in democracy? Why would any spouse go along with this in a way that could do real damage to the future psyche of her husband? Was this some desperate attempt to rope-a-dope Dr. Oz into seeming too aggressive against a sympathetic figure?

If so, it failed. Time and again in the debate, it seemed as if Dr. Oz pulled his punches out of sympathy, cutting his critiques short lest he seem overly aggressive against a man who, despite having been offered everything the campaign demanded in terms of computers and closed captioning, could barely string words together in a coherent fashion.

What is stunning about all of this is that it could have been avoided. Fetterman’s stroke came before his Senate primary election was decided, and given the weak performance of the rather nutty GOP gubernatorial nominee Doug Mastriano (the primarily Skype-based candidate trails his opponent Josh Shapiro in fundraising by a mere $45 million), there is an absolute possibility that someone like Democratic representative Conor Lamb could be winning at this moment. But Fetterman held on, with assurances from those around him to Democratic voters that he would be capable of performing come the fall.

This has been backed up more recently by the complicit leftist media, which dogpiled NBC News reporter Dasha Burns for daring to suggest that Fetterman had difficulty with questions and struggled to understand small talk in her recent interview. Rebecca Traister of New York magazine, Kara Swisher of a million podcasts, Molly Jong-Fast of someone-who’s-wasting-their-money: they all claimed that Fetterman was fine, just fine, and maybe it was Burns who had problems with small talk. They all now look like useful idiots — and there’s no defense for this level of partisan spin. The man can barely function, and everyone with eyes can see it.

For Republicans and Dr. Oz, the race had been trending in their direction even prior to this debate — but rather than right the ship, the choice by Fetterman’s team to force their candidate out on stage is political malpractice that will in all likelihood doom their effort.
