Yeah and he will like stay an unknown in MSM. They won't vet anyone of the left.

I wonder if Creep uncle Joe is getting cold feet with the Bootyjudge sneaking up on him.

Hands on shoulders sniffing Joes hair or is that a hair.
Soon he will be planting the lips on the bald spot.
Netflix will probably make a movie about it.

WaldoKitty's enthusiasm for this guy only serves to show even more why I'm not thrilled with the prospect of this guy as president.

The last thing we need would be to have yet another president whom WaldoKitty is speaking about in orgasmic, cultish tones.

I know I have my groupies.



If you are so excitable that you can't think for yourself about a President, and instead let someone like me influence it to the extent that you state, then I'd say you ought to go and seek out some help. Or maybe some yoga & meditation, and less Internet.

I don't think you understood what I said.

It is YOU who are getting overly excited about politicians.

Anybody who speaks about any politician in the kind of orgasmic tones that you do (whether Trump or this guy) is the one who needs to get off the internet and do more yoga and meditation. Speaking about somebody you don't even personally know in such loving, gushing and defensive terms is a sign one is susceptible to political cults. I simply find it distasteful (and sad) to see people gushing so overflowingly over somebody they don't personally know.

It's OK to 'like' and 'admire' a politician. As soon as you start acting like you 'love' a politician, then something's wrong.

Everything I need to understand. Every star has their groupies.

This is a discussion forum son. If you can't handle it then move on.

I do find it amazing that Pete B. has risen so fast in the polls in less than a month. Biden in comparison, can't even figure out how to even announce.

Unknown? Have you actually listened to the guy speak? He's all over the MSM and FOX NEWS has already started attacking him.

Would be interested to know where the money flowing into his campaign is coming from.

One summary


https://www.opensecrets.org/news/201...l-fundraising/




Buttigieg has maybe the 4th highest share of money from big donors in general and 6th highest total from big donors.


Previous reports were he had the 2nd most support from previous specific tracked big Clinton and Obama donors to Harris.


New reports say Hollywood is starting to help Buttigieg raise money.

Washington lobbyists are jumping in too. https://www.rollcall.com/news/campai...pete-buttigieg


As a Mayoral candidate he got fairly sizeable contributions from big businesses. https://publicintegrity.org/federal-...ent-candidate/


Mandy Moore and the son of Fox News mogul Rupert Murdoch have contributed https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-ne...d00225d7368513
