All I'll say is that with the coverage he has been getting in the last ten days he won't be firing HIS Communications Director.

1. Hmm...

... he could build up a lot of voter support with these bills. People tend to remember who came to their community and contributed. Democrats have a HUGE bench of future candidates!

3. I don't know about this. It's way too early.

4. This is news to me. nt

5. Politico wouldn't be interested in sowing conflict within Dems, now would it?!1

[Wounded Bear]

7. Anything for a "Dems in disarray" angle, right?

15. Spot on!

All these negative stories about Kamala Harris and now Buttigieg is vying for the throne in 2024.

So subtle!

6. Wake me when they find a politician who is not ambitious. That would be headline news.

[MineralMan]

8. Way too early for this kind of nonsense.

It's eminently ignorable.

9. Was thinking of watching that Amazon documentary today

I like the guy - he was one of my first choices in the primary - but there's something lurking around in all this that has me going, "Hmmm." We get these awful shots at Harris that obviously came from inside the party, and then all these glowing Buttigieg items and the release of the documentary.

I just wonder if we're watching some intraparty maneuvering. I know he gives off a very, "I have no time for pettiness," vibe, but that could be an affect. I keep thinking of the quote, "All rising to great place is by a winding stair." She goes down as he comes up it.

It's just a little splinter of a hmm in my head.

11. That is exactly what we are watching.

Did you notice the VP fired her communications director last week?

10. politico's trash

12. CNN had an article suggesting a Harris-Buttigieg ticket in 2024 if Biden chooses not to run.

[Hekate]

13. President Biden has not been in office even one year yet. He has achieved miracles...

President Biden has not been in office even one year yet. He has achieved miracles…

… some with the incredible help of the Speaker of the House, but all with his own hard and skilled work.

Can we at DU just stop participating in the idle chatter that would have him immediately become a lame duck? All progress by Joe and the Dems will come to a screeching halt. Our enemies will rejoice nonstop.

[Mysterian]

14. Politico garbage?

Why post it here?
