Fetterman Ads John Fetterman is the real deal folks. Enjoy

This is who he is and why he can win the Pennsylvania Senate seat which likely will make the difference in whether we keep the majority or not.

It works to introduce himself. I think it tells you who Fetterman is and makes you like the guy. Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #10
The Primary is next month (the ad was posted yesterday); he should be beyond introductions. brooklynite Apr 2022 #12

types like Connor Lamb for decades for this seat and they all lost... the last one was Katie McGinty. Fetterman is a progressive but more like a union guy progressive. He can win IMHO.

...is that its a great message if he were running for Governor. Doesn't work for a Senate campaign. Doesn't say a thing about what he wants to do as a legislator (neither did he when I met with him).

undecided voters...doesn't hurt. He is the kind of candidate we need. Did you watch the ad about manufacturing? That is a big deal in Ohio and Pennsylvania.

I'm not working on Fetterman's campaign, but I believe these ads were created for the general election. He's using a different message for the primary, which is coming up in May. The PA primary debates will differentiate Fetterman from the other Dem candidates - Conor Lamb and others.

If you read his words, without looking at the photos, he sounds a lot like Bernie Sanders. However he has appeal with independents and even some (non-crazy) Repukes here in Pennsylvania.

Fetterman speaks the language and looks the part of someone who can win in the state.
