... as a snake-oil pitchman. So OK I agree - it's a great ad for those who are hip to the truth about Oz.

What about the "unhip"? This ad could be confusing for those people.

I still think Fetterman should win this Senate race - by double digits.
Pennsylvanians do not want Dr. Oz, and John Fetterman is one of our own.

… Oz is a target rich environment, so the degree of difficulty in creating the ad isn’t as high as you might think. Nevertheless, I agree. This ad is as good as any I have seen.

question everything

And then I watched the ad.

I apologize. You were absolutely correct. This really is the greatest political ad ever.
