Anything to please the master.
Dr Oz, who has a net worth of at least $100 million, is on a roll. On a roll of sending fundraising messages, that is.
With polls showing Mehmet Oz (R) trailing John Fetterman (D) in the polls, the Oz campaign sent a barrage of fundraising emails and texts, totalling at least 100 when taking into account the past month. In fact, 23 fundraising emails have been sent since Monday. A majority of these fundraising messages tell recipients that Oz is lagging gravely when it comes to fundraising.
An email sent Monday—titled, “It would be humiliating”—says that “with just hours until my Daily Deadline, Democrats are STILL MASSIVELY outraising Republicans,” and “Right now, Democrats are FLATTENING Republicans in Senate races across the country.” “I’m running out of time,” it concluded. The day before, Oz gave supporters what he framed as insider information from “an emergency finance meeting.” “[T]hey told me more bad news,” he said, adding that without “a major fundraising push TODAY, we will have to make some serious changes to the campaign,” including cutting ads. “Yeah… this is bad. This could literally cost us the win so close to the election,” the email said.
It looks like Oz’s mockery of Fetterman’s health hasn’t paid off in polls, either.

But, either way, it’s a given that many Pennsylvanian voters abhor the smell of Dr Oz. If Oz’s fundraising woes continue, it could foretell not only his fate in the race, but also his legacy.
