The race to replace Pennsylvania's retiring Republican Sen. Pat Toomey is one of the Dem's most significant electoral opportunities. Although this is a bump in the road, Fetterman is ready to fight in this high-stakes race.
The revelation has created a cloud of uncertainty for the Democrats. Fetterman's imposing stature is a large part of his political appeal - a showing of physical weakness may boost the Republican party's chances in Pennsylvania.
