Buttigieg edges out Biden among Democrats in New Hampshire poll

[quote]The University of New Hampshire (UNH) Survey Center Granite Poll found that 17 percent of likely 2024 Democratic primary voters in the state would choose Buttigieg among a list of Democrats, or those who caucus with Democrats, who are considered possible 2024 presidential contenders.

[quote]Biden received 16 percent support, followed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), who each came in at 10 percent. A handful of other Democrats, in addition Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), received less than 10 percent.

Actually, R11, all the polls show that there is more support for a generic gay male candidate than an atheist. Atheist is even behing Muslim.

[quote]While more than nine in 10 Americans would vote for a presidential candidate who is black, a woman, Catholic, Hispanic, or Jewish, significantly smaller percentages would vote for one who is an atheist (54%) or Muslim (58%). Americans' willingness to vote for a Mormon (80%) or gay or lesbian (68%) candidate falls between these two extremes.

And, this was in 2012. I bet the gay/lesbian number is higher now.

Obama won because the other candidates did not galvanize their parties -- and he did! No one believed a Black man could win, including those of us that supported and voted for him. In November 2008 you could have knocked me over with a feather. Until he won I was certain he would lose. The "Obama Coalition" made him president, and that includes some measure of white guilt.

pete actually choose wisely, chasten is charismatic and interesting enough to the general public but not too much to make him take over the spotlight or scare the public. Pete came out the year same sex because legal nationwide even when he has said himself that he came out to close friends before he became mayor (his late 20s), he waited for it to be politically safe to come out. He’s planned his whole life. He started dating chasten a month after he came out publicly then, 2 and a half years later they were engaged so chasten is either the most amazing man on this earth to bag pete that fast or pete just needed to get married fast to run for president. Pete is good looking enough, had power as a mayor so he could have any guy but he chose chasten. Chasten that’s a man that took his last name, left his job to help him run for president, is a househusband raising their children while pete travels and pays nice to the public. he’s perfect.

A bit off topic but my biology teacher in high school was Maltese and he was supposedly a qualified doctor who had delivered babies and so on, yet he was working as a bog standard biology teacher. Students called him 'Dr' but he didn't want to be called Dr; he wanted to be called 'Mr'. I have always thought that there was something odd and off about that.

R182 In the UK being called 'Dr' generally seems to me to be seen as a higher title than Mr. We had a principal and a vice principal who wanted us to call them Dr even though all they had was some kind of bollocks PhD. (I see them as vanity doctors, not real doctors.) This guy though was supposedly an actual trained medical doctor. He was very popular with pupils too but there's something strange going on, in my opinion. He once got angry with me in a lesson for not showing enough interest and I still vividly remember that. I have always wanted to know what the real story is. Deaths caused by medical mistakes are surprisingly high so I wouldn't be shocked if he was struck off but who knows.

The Democrats holding statewide positions there aren't going to drop out to do Pete a favor.

R84, I saw it, especially after Caroline Kennedy glommed onto Obama--the next Camelot. She definitely didn't want a Clinton dynasty, which would upend the Kennedy dynasty. She shit all over Hillary Clinton and praised Obama as a god. Then he shit on the Clintons and went to the Reagan legacy instead, praising Reagan's leadership. By the time that every guilty white and virtually every Black person who could vote hit the polls, along with the rest of us who did not want a conservative in the white house, of course he won. Once he got the nomination, he was going to win.

As a Dem, it is not necessary to have a continual social media presence flaunting a politician’s children.

I also am weary of smooth-talking politicians who have actual weak records of being productive. They use their gift of gab to gloss over their deficiencies and lack of actual accomplishments.

This is Pete to a T: he travels incessantly, hobnobs with everyone in sight, is on teevee non-stop, walking red carpets for his “documentary”, and shilling his personal life on social media all while making major missteps as SoT and surreptitiously taking taxpayer-funded “paternity leave”.

He is a joke and a political trope.

Not EVERYONE on DL subscribes to tribal politics, R273. Those who are perceptive can look beyond the mirage and see for themselves. A politician who has a dodgy record: whether as a small town mayor in Indiana or as SoT speaks volumes.

And no, I am not a Repub: voted for Biden and Newsom in my state.

We can agree to disagree, but in MY mind, Buttigieg is/was a major mistake for SoT. He would have been better placed in the president’s press office using his silver tongue to dice and slice other politicians. [Then he could have had someone rightfully step in to cover for him while he decided to adopt TWO infants - and one with medical issues.] Adopting and rearing these infants at a critical junction in his career and arguably the largest responsibility of his life demonstrates - yet again - his poor decision-making skills.

He has revealed himself to be poor in the position of both a mayor AND SoT.

R310 Pete is and always will be a McKinsey consultant, telling the client what he wants to hear. If he seriously thinks he has a political future, he'll need to win a statewide election in Indiana. I'm actually surprised that he didn't capitalize on all the publicity he got running for President to do so in 2020. Obama won Indiana in 2008 so it isn't nearly as impossible a mission as Beto running for Gov of Texas when the last time a Democratic Presidential candidate won Texas was in 1976. Red state Democrats need to start working their asses off. We can't live off of California and New York forever.

It’s Kamala Harris nobody likes. Bringing up busing in the 2020 political debates was one of the stupidest, stupidest thing anyone could do. She not only did it, she made a tee shirt about it.

Busing was one if the biggest social policy failures in US history. Millions of white, blue-collar, city dwelling democrats across the country converted to GOP over busing. They rightly pointed out the children of white politicians weren’t being bused to black schools and since democrats loudly supported busing, it was democrats who got blamed for it. After a few years most democratic politicians realized busing was the political equivalent of a suicide vest, they dropped their support of it rather than see the entire party implode.

I can’t stress to those of you who didn’t live through the busing era what a divisive, negative effect it had on the country and what a catastrophe it was for Democratic Party,

Biden absolutely didn’t want Harris as a running mate because of it. Not just that it was damaging him with black voter, but that it was damaging to the whole Democratic Party in 2020. She was like a dog who went outside, dug up a dead animal, brought it into the house and plopped it on the living room carpet. It showed extraordinary, almost supernatural, political stupidity.

He had to have her as running mate because internal polls showed Biden/Harris was the winning ticket. But he sure as hell didn’t want someone so moronically subversive.

Lis Smith is busy making a fool of herself. Must be going through menopause. She had an interview for Crooked Media and sat with her legs wide open so we could admire her snatch. I hope she didn't supply the eggs for Pete's twins because they'll get a crazy gene.

I like Pete. A very intelligent and capable man. A regular, masculine gay man who is not a finger-snapping yaaasss queen.

Word is that Biden is waiting until after the midterms to announce he won't seek a seond term. If that's the case, Buttigieg is already preparing. Per OPs poll, he is the frontrunner.

He has my vote.

To run for President in 2024. Did you not see OP's poll, R397?

by Anonymousreply 398September 14, 2022 2:03 AM

Why would he run for President R398?

America will never elect a homosexual to the office of POTUS at this time. Perhaps in another 5 decades or so but unlikely even then.

Are you seriously [bold]THAT[/bold] delusional? America is deeply and violently homophobic and is filled with nasty unhinged religious people who specifically hate gay men (after abortion). There are at least 100 million plus Evangelical Christians in the US and that doesn't include the other religious denominations like Catholics, other Christians denominations and Muslims - who also deeply hate gay men. Or did you not hear about all those people? You know - the ones who worked tirelessly to remove abortion rights over the past few decades and are now coming for us and gay marriage.

Well, it's obviously going to be a big shock to you but those people will [bold]NEVER[/bold] allow a homosexual male to be elected as POTUS in 2024.

I don't even know what to say to people like you.

A poll is a poll is a poll. As we have all learned over recent years - they mean literally nothing.

In reality, on voting day - Americans aren't going to elect a homosexual President R400. It's sad and frustrating - but it's a fact and you know it.

At this point, all those Evangelicals would never vote for ANY Democrat. So, your point is?

by Anonymousreply 403September 14, 2022 1:40 PM

The poll was in New Hampshire, which is hardly a blue state. So if they support Pete, that tells you, R402, that your fears are unfounded.

by Anonymousreply 404September 14, 2022 3:28 PM

People aren't going to support Pete because he doesn't have the requisite qualifications. The fact that a small-town mayor ran for President was all media hype. He'll need to in a major race statewide first if he wants to be President. Even being a Congressman would be a step up from getting votes in small town. Pete got 8,000 votes in South Bend. That's risible. And Secretary of Transportation is a minor cabinet position. Secretary of State it isn't.

by Anonymousreply 405September 14, 2022 3:52 PM

And, R405, that’s not even in consideration of his lousy performance as small town mayor and, thus far, Secretary of Transportation.

Only tribal fools would vote for him based on his poor performances.

R407 who are you talking to?

by Anonymousreply 408September 15, 2022 9:27 AM

The resumes of US have thinned dramatically from George W Bush (entrepreneur/dynasty member/TX governor 5 years) to Barack Obama (community organizer/IL state senator 8 years/US senator 3 years) to Donald Trump (real estate “mogul”/TV Personality).

Biden was the first well qualified candidate since Clinton and even Clinton’s Arkansas service was questionable when he won.

Americans are drawn to emotionally resonant candidates with two big camps—those who want politicians that remind them of themselves (W) or validate their worst selves (Trump) and those who want to be led by those better than they are who inspire them to improvement (Obama).

Many, perhaps most black voters are homophobes. Culturally, gayness is unacceptable to them hence the term “down low brother.” The data bears this out.

They are above all else though, pragmatists. Pete seeming unelectable due to his gayness is also disqualifying to them. Fuck, it took Bill Clinton shooting his mouth off after South Carolina to solidify black support to Obama given his limited experience. Pete cannot hope to get any more than 35% of them regardless of his appeal. That is tough hurdle for the nomination.

That said, he’s a unique candidate with undeniable crossover appeal. Underestimate him at your peril.

In liberal California in 2008, Blacks reported support for Obama at 94% and Prop 8 (1 Man, 1 Woman amendment) at 70%. The abortion parental notification proposition 4 garnered 49% support. Thus, the religious conviction argument is dubious as 21% fewer blacks felt that a parent has a right to know about their child’s abortion than opposing gay marriage.

Blacks are pragmatic democrats.

Linking to a great discussion on Tell Me More. The gay marriage ban support vs support for parental notification of abortion is an elephant in the room that the panelists overlook and cannot be explained by their comments.

News flash, California is not that Liberal. It's about 60/40. So yes, with those numbers they dominate the legislature but there's still vast number of millions who Repugs and Conservative. You can always spot them because they enjoy living in CA and it's lifestyle while trashing it at the same time complaining about taxes and how it's not good for business even though they made their fortune there. Elon is a good example.
