I have been thinking about Buttigieg choosing Mike Pence as a punching bag. Probably very few people think enough of Pence to come to his aid, and he is useful as a symbol of the Trump administration. And since they are both from Indiana, it will look like a local dispute. This could be very good strategy for now.
I have not contributed to Beto this time. He's like a bright shiny object and he couldn't beat the least-liked fool, Ted Cruz. I worry that he'll dazzle the Democrats with his rock-star ways and his vague physical resemblance to a Kennedy. I sincerely hope he does not win the primary.
I agree, Susan. I will not vote for him. But really, guys. He's a Texan. Do you really expect him to have no connection whatsoever to oil? That's sort of like expecting a Saudi Arabian prince to have no connection to oil...or a catfish to have no connection to bayous.
Young voters prefer the oldest candidate because, sometimes, kids are pretty damned savvy. Also, Bernie is way cooler than any of the others, with the possible exception of Mayor Pete.
BTW I sent Mayor Pete a few clams this evening. The kid's got class and a whole lot of moxie.
I sent Pete a few more bucks last night, and look forward to hearing tomorrow how much support (both numbers and dollars) he had in the first quarter. Actually less than that; he announced Jan. 23rd.
There are far too many pictures on the internet of Uncle Joe grabbing women's shoulders from behind and nuzzling or kissing their necks. Yes, this is highly inappropriate because not once did he ask permission first, he just grabbed. Aside from that there are far too many ultra-conservative neoliberal rulings in his past. He needs to forget about running because if he gets in I think he will get demolished. His tendency to put his foot in his mouth will be fully activated by the attacks he will face.

ReplyDeleteMayor Pete knows just how bad Pence is. Indiana is next door to Ohio and Pence ruled with his RELIGION which caused massive problems.

ReplyDeleteBeto’s Wealthy Father-in-Law Helped Launch His Political Career. He’s Haunted It Ever Since. [Click] “His relationship with real estate tycoon Bill Sanders has long been a source of political attacks. It will be again.” Hmmm…. add that to his support for fossil fuel industries. And being a New Democrat.
