ERIE, Pa. - Pennsylvania Senate candidate John Fetterman acknowledged he was lucky to be alive as he officially returned to the campaign trail Friday, more than 90 days after the Democrat suffered a stroke that threatened his life and political prospects in one of the nation's premier Senate contests.Fetterman spoke for nearly 11 minutes, haltingly at times, as he addressed several hundred voters packed inside a convention center on the shores of Lake Erie.

It was the 52-year-old lieutenant governor's only scheduled public rally this month as he gradually ramps up his public schedule."Tonight for me, it’s about being grateful — just grateful," said Fetterman, who stood for the duration of his remarks. "Three months ago my life could have ended.

It’s the truth."He said he may not have survived his stroke if he was in rural Elk County instead of being just 20 minutes away from a major stroke facility."Gisele saved my life," he said, wearing his usual hooded sweatshirt and jeans.Fetterman's return marks a significant development in the race to fill retiring Republican Sen.

Pat Toomey's seat. The Pennsylvania contest offers Democrats perhaps their best pickup opportunity nationally as the two parties battle for Senate control in the November midterm elections.
