Pete Buttigieg is more electable than Bernie Sanders — and more progressive than you think

Perhaps voters view Buttigieg as the most honest Democrat candidate.

bahahahahahaha

I do not.

In fact, I will assert outright that if Buttcrack were awarded the nomination after what the Democrats are doing with announcing caucus results that do not bear resemblance to who attendees say that they voted for Bernie Sanders will run and Buttcrack would come in third in the general election.

he can’t win because the Black vote is not supporting him, in fact, they protest him.

Given the 30% favorability Trump has gotten from blacks, a Trump-Buttigieg contest could be a unique watershed election.

I am not sure. Many moderate white suburban voters, who would never vote for Sanders because of his radical economic views, may vote for Buttgieg to prove their tolerance for homosexuals just like they voted for Obama to prove their tolerance for blacks.
