I've really liked Fetterman since I started seeing some about him a couple of years ago. Maybe he can't stand up to national scrutiny or maybe he doesn't have national political chops, but it seems like he has a story and local political ability that should be able to catapult him onto the national Democratic stage as a strong voice for working class Rust Belt voters (ala the Joe Biden coalition). It's not like the Dems have a deep bench right now so they should be doing everything they can to amplify his voice.
