Why are Dems going all in on Mayor Pete?

It was posted a few pages back that the West Wing is all abuzz about Pete (Politico). Why are you choosing to ignore that?

Pete is the most articulate and pragmatic of all the leading democrats. He did the best in all the debates against Sanders and Warren who act like disagreeing with them is an act of war. He articulates the moderate position clearly and in a way that is respectful to progressives.

He needs to run for Gov, senate or congress from a blue or purple state.

I agree. He'd make a great senator or governor. It's really what his next step should be.

I just read the Politico story - and I guess good for Mayor Pete for getting that placed?

If I were Harris I'd sure be p*ssed about all the stories coming out that seem to undermine me, that's for sure.

You should have posted who Pete's big $$$ donors were. That's what really at issue. And that list is almost certainly shorter than the one you took the time to post.


Reminds me of the primaries where the Sanders supporters were claiming he controls the price of bread or whatever. If Buttigieg was a Rhodes Scholar and McKinsey alum so corrupted by corporate dollars, you'd expect him to live a more extravagant lifestyle than what he is currently.

So OP is just making ish up.


Do you doubt there are multiple Democratic Party-aligned noise machines giving Pete wildly more play than he deserves?


Those goal posts sure are mobile!

Are you calling black people homophobes? That's sad.

I’m sorry, that’s your evidence that the Democrats are “all in” on Buttigieg? One article that basically sounds like a whisper campaign started by Pete’s PR team? Premise fail.

Dem here:

Mayor Pete has never come up as a topic of conversation amongst my fellow Dems. The only people obsessing about him is the RWNJ media ecosystem

Yeah, he belongs in a place with cliched professional class Democrats who treat politics as a circle-jerk for like-minded people.

That he’s a thing at all makes your inference about RWNJ very doubtful.

A little Feynman is what the ‘goal posts’ poster needs.

Stop speaking for POC….unless you are one. You don’t know.
