7. Klobuchar lacks a vision

In my opinion that is her issue...the fact that she doesn’t really have an issue. It’s the “you can’t get that done “ message followed by a compromise that might get 10% done.

Then she uses her ammo on a battle with Buttigieg who also is lacking vision and is in the “I’m electable” lane. It doesn’t make sense.

“I’m electable and we need to beat Trump” is a legitimate platform. But it’s pretty crowded with Buttigieg and Biden. And Bloomberg is trying to get his limo to cut off everyone in the lane as well.

Rage is fine if it comes with passion. I don’t see any passion from Klobuchar. It comes across to me as more of a quest for power. But that is just my opinion.

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