Hey, Michael Graham is one of the great talk show hosts, and he's the publisher, managing editor of Inside Sources, and great on Twitter.

You know, you can get everything. You just go to Michaelgram.com. Michaelgram.com. Michael Graham, how you doing?

0:15.8

I'm doing about as good as a Republican candidate for Senate in the state of Pennsylvania.

0:21.9

I'm getting barraged from every angle. It's all coming in. It's incoming fire. It's a total

0:26.9

cap fight. And I don't know if you know this, the inside sources owns Delaware Valley Journal

that covers the four collar counties outside Philly. And we are having a blast covering this race. So there's Dr. Oz, we all know. And then there's this Dave McCormick, who's a real swamp creature with that evil wife, Dina Powell. But this candidate Barnett puts out a video. It's quite a story of her mother was raped. And it's the most touching story. But nobody's vetted this woman. You know, she keeps telling you she was in the military. Nobody knows what, if you ask her what college, she can't quite tell you. If you ask her where she lived, she can't tell you. How come nobody checks her out? Well, we've been checking her out, and we had a debate just for the candidates who are from the corner of Pennsylvania that Delaware Valley General covers down the southeast corner and she was

1:31.2

But you're right, she hasn't been bedded and she hasn't faced, you know,

1:50.1

So they're looking around, and they've fallen upon Kathy Barnett, who's an actual MAGA voter, an actual Trump supporter, an actual populist conservative.

And I think it's going to be tough for Oz to get those votes back in the bottle. Yeah. So if Barnett was not in this, it's become a three-way race, these three-year-old at the time. If Barnett was not in that race, who would those votes then go to, to Oz? I have no idea. You know, there's other candidates.

2:17.7

I was heard about there's a guy.

2:19.3

Jeff Bartost is kind of a traditional conservative, ran for lieutenant governor years ago.
