151. NOW Endorsed Lamb after..

Mon Apr 4, 2022, 03:27 PM

Apr 2022

We carefully reviewed and interviewed any candidate who sought our endorsement (Fetterman did not participate in our process and Arkoosh dropped out before our final decision) and determined that Conor Lamb had a proven record and support for our issues.

Don't forget Lamb voted to fund Trump's wall, Trump's tax cuts and against stimulus money for the Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #92

He also voted to deregulate Wall Street via a significant weakening of Dodd-Frank Celerity Apr 2022 #100

If it's a smear why won't Fetterman debate, explain, or defend himself? nt BlueLucy Apr 2022 #110

He has addressed it as a quick google will show you and the Black man involved is supporting him. Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #112

Smear? Are you suggesting that Lamb is lying? mcar Apr 2022 #131

He's at least testing truth's elasticity dpibel Apr 2022 #135

Sorry, the DNC backed the wrong horse. gab13by13 Mar 2022 #12

That's illegal. Budi Mar 2022 #34

Hopefully, he means twice this year (primary and general), and once in 2028 Polybius Apr 2022 #87

Fetterman would make a great candidate after in 2028...after Biden. Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #93

I didn't take it to imply racisim, I understood it to mean vigilantism Budi Mar 2022 #36

He thought he heard gunfire...my Black neighbor came out with a gun after we heard gunfire... Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #94

DNC gave us pat toomey in 2016. dsp3000 Apr 2022 #43

If he has the image, then why would he worry about Lamb reminding voters of that ummm, "incident" Budi Apr 2022 #45

He doesn't need to worry about that incident, honestly. It's blown out of proportion. dsp3000 Apr 2022 #81

The PA Party has got it wrong for decades...it has been a long time since we won that seat. Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #78

Now you are trying to smear Fetterman with Gabbard comps? 10% in the polls Lamb is the desperate one Celerity Mar 2022 #24

So, today when polls show Lamb losing by more than 20 points, Lamb decides to PA Democrat Mar 2022 #14

The anti-Fetterman posts here are really anti-liberal. gab13by13 Mar 2022 #15

The last PA Senate candidate chosen by the DNC (Katie McGinty) lost. PA Democrat Mar 2022 #21

The DNC has not endorsed Lamb. Celerity Mar 2022 #26

What Fetterman did was So Wrong.. Cha Mar 2022 #19

He DID debate Lamb. On March 20th. PA Democrat Mar 2022 #22

3 better questions. Why has the man involved said he hopes Fetterman wins? Why did Lamb vote to Celerity Mar 2022 #33

I remember Nina Turner (another candidate supported by Justice Democrats) polling results LetMyPeopleVote Apr 2022 #70

Someone here said he has presidential aspirations...well he just lost a primary vote from me Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #80

If you base your vote on "someone said", you might think about sitting out Election Day. 11 Bravo Apr 2022 #108

Honey, I never sit out election day...never. And time will tell...I doubt we have to worry about it Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #113

I think you misread the post Celerity Apr 2022 #133

Mr. 10% in the polls is getting desperate. Lamb also left out that the man, Christopher Miyares Celerity Mar 2022 #16

FYI. Fetterman debated Lamb, Kenyatta and Khalil on March 20 in Pittsburgh. PA Democrat Mar 2022 #17

I'm still pissed, gab13by13 Mar 2022 #18

Questioning an incident HE Created is not bashing. Budi Apr 2022 #46

Not knowledgeable about PA politics. Is one more likely to win general election? Hoyt Mar 2022 #23

That's kind of the impression I get of Fetterman. I certainly like his persona. Thanks. Hoyt Apr 2022 #66

This is so fucked up, Fetterman is an ally and we can all see this. Jus, damn ... uponit7771 Apr 2022 #48

Connor Lamb is a far stronger candidate compared to Fetterman LetMyPeopleVote Apr 2022 #52

Are you from Pa.? gab13by13 Apr 2022 #58

I used to live in PA near Scanton. And I lived in Matamoras also. Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #115

Has any African American or labor groups endorses Fetterman yet? LetMyPeopleVote Apr 2022 #118

He was mayor of Braddock for two terms after the incident. And the guy involveded Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #121

You do realize that Fetterman got less than 600 votes in both races for mayor of this entity LetMyPeopleVote Apr 2022 #132

It was an off year municipal race...how about when he ran for Lieutenant governor...for Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #144

It was a crowded field where the vote was split LetMyPeopleVote Apr 2022 #146

Not in PA...I lived in PA and live very close in Ohio now...Lamb is more like Katie McGinty who Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #96

If I were in PA I would vote for Fetterman. ananda Apr 2022 #68

Let's discuss Fetterman's electoral history LetMyPeopleVote Apr 2022 #69

For context, Biden got 784 votes Deminpenn Apr 2022 #75

One thing I'll give Lamb supporters. lagomorph777 Apr 2022 #91

Fetterman beat a sitting Lieutenant governor to become Governors Wolf's Lieutenant Demsrule86 Apr 2022 #98

Wow.. Tiff is really into it.. TY Cha Apr 2022 #102

That's a ridiculous take. He was part of the Dem ticket in 2018 that won by 17 points statewide ! OnDoutside Apr 2022 #109

You do realize that voters vote mainly for the top of the ticket LetMyPeopleVote Apr 2022 #119

Of course, but they weren't so repulsed by the thought of Fetterman OnDoutside Apr 2022 #120

There tends to be a difference in voter attitudes between Federal and State offices. brooklynite Apr 2022 #129

Seriously? Anyone would be "afraid" of Fetterman because he's taller and "looks tough"? brooklynite Apr 2022 #88

Of course you weren't afraid Polybius Apr 2022 #90

The motivation is almost always for the guy/gal doing it to win. BradAllison Apr 2022 #124

He may win the primary by doing this. And ensure the repug win. alphafemale Apr 2022 #126

No, jmho, but primary voters see through Deminpenn Apr 2022 #127
