Screw Joe the Plumber (sic) -- John Fetterman is the real "common man"

[nichomachus]

I saw this episode of Steven Colbert last night. John Fetterman, mayor of Braddock, PA, rocks. What an intelligent, thoughtful guy, who is working hard to bring his city back from the dumps.

The Dems should get him and put him into a debate with Joe (or whatever his name is).

If you haven't seen the episode, it's pretty good. And, Colbert didn't even mock him -- which is an absolute rarity for him.

1. I'll have to watch this tonight when I get home

We can get on the internet at work, but there's no sound!

Always glad to hear of a mayor working to help his city.

3. He looked kind of scary at first

But he's a really smart guy -- and he's so sincere. I was very impressed. He makes Joe the P look like the idiot he is.
