No more "undecided" here

Yesterday I donated to Mayor Pete via DU. Today, after seeing the hecklers and the way Pete handled them, I can honestly say that if the primary were held today, Peter Paul Montgomery Buttigieg would get my vote.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Bernie was sending them out to donors through an email. So IF you donated to Bernie, you got an email asking if you wanted a free sticker. That is the only sticker I know about.

As the other candidates build a war chest, it is possible they will send out stickers to donors too.

Here is a link to the Bernie sticker: https://act.berniesanders.com/signup/free-not-me-us-sticker

IF anyone else knows something, please speak up.

It's a great feeling when you choose and jump on a candidate's band wagon.

Mayor Pete is an excellent candidate who is definitely on my "Maybe" list (as opposed to my "Ruled Out" list).

I think Pete has very good composure, and is very well informed on the topics that he presents, a very sharp guy. The issue I have with him, would be could he even carry his own home state in a Presidential election?

Indiana has always been a very Republican state, but they've had Democratic governors and senators. I think it's possible for him to win. No one could say with certainty at the moment. (BTW, Indiana is my home state, even though I no longer live there.)

I'd rather he lie in the background so the attack machine lays off him until the last minute...

Quite honestly, I think that is part of the DNC strategy... Tons of candidates, lots of different targets.... That's what the GOP does...

Right now, I'm still with Beto because.. well.. Texas being in play is a great incentive. Pete will definitely not put Texas in play.

However, once poll matchups of our candidates against Cheetolini start coming out, if Buttigieg shows strongly against him in Pennsylvania/Ohio/Florida or enough key states to get over that 270 mark, I will HAPPILY jump on over.

For me it's whomever shows the best results in the battleground states that must be won that I'll get behind. Well, except for Sanders. Will not support him. I don't even care if he polls best at this point.
