The Pete Buttigieg media strategy

9. I predict she'll do plenty of interviews as soon. . .

. . .as she is crystal clear about her own positions and fully prepared to address both meaningful and crap questions. Remember, since Biden stepped aside she's made a brilliant VP choice, had a hand in a phenomenal convention, held inspiring rallies, and developed her economic priorities.

In the midst of all that, I think she is still developing her own unique stances and agenda. Until Biden dropped out she made a great case for his accomplishments and agenda and was happy to address media questions on that. Now she needs to be clear about her case for herself.

As she prepares for the debate, she is also preparing for heightened media exposure. She would be a fool to do interviews prematurely. Then the only story would be that she's not prepared or evasive.

When Pete Buttigieg announced his candidacy on April 19, 2019 you can bet he spent more than 6 weeks developing his positions and case for himself over others in the running.
