“Who is funding this guy? Who is backing him? Why is he suddenly one of top Democrat candidates now”?
I asked the same about Obama the day he announced in 2007.
This seems to be Buttigieg's week to be the top candidate. Last week was Beto and Biden. The week before was Harris. Dems seem to be floundering to find a front-runner who has staying power. It is beginning to resemble the GOP line-up of 2012, which couldn't find a consistent front-runner until Romney sort of outlasted the other contenders.
So far, most of the Dem names probably get the same reaction in fly-over country: "Who?"
It does seems that the media has lost interest in Fauxohontas.
We’re on the same page. I thought the same of Obama. It was easy to tell that he was a phony, smooth talking and up to no good. Then when Rev. Right was exposed and there was little or no coverage of his association with Obama, I knew it was not good. From then on it was obvious.
Buttigieg is another snake in the grass like Obama. They all are but this guy is smooth. He even rescues puppies and the snowflakes love that. Emotion over logic and critical thinking.
