says in the words I couldn't put together, exactly the way I feel. I truly think voters want to move away from the last 4 years and others, like I, want a new person defining the Democratic party. Of course, if he would be our nominee, I will absolutely vote for him.

...nominee because he's best positioned to win PA, MI, WI, OH and... IN??? Anyway... those five swing states. I adopted this position when I heard a local pol reply with such immediacy that he supported Biden and this was why.

At this point, though, I'm going to vote for Buttiegieg.
