“It’s a bridge too far.”

I said that about Obama in early 2008.

Obama won with the black vote.

Buttigieg will lose with the black vote.

It's really as simple as that.

With Trump a virtual lock on getting at least 20% of the black vote (and that's on the low end), the only chance the Democrats ever had against Trump was to nominate a black person.

I actually switched parties in 2008 to vote for Obama in the NH Democratic primary to help McCain, since I was certain Obama was the one Democrat with no hope of winning.
