22. I think the world of Mayor Pete

And I think he could seriously take on Trump...

As could Warren, Harris, Castro, etc. We have some very heavy hitters and we need to be proud of each and every one of them.

this next debate is going to shake the tree. We'll see who is left. I think Pete B. will be among the top 6.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Undecided
He said that he would like to see a 'slow burn" madaboutharry Jul 2019 #1
C+ and Early But two things: mobeau69 Jul 2019 #2
Impressive... and Biden/Sanders/Harris all dangerously close to missing the 15% threshold. thesquanderer Jul 2019 #3
The primary race is wide open. bluewater Jul 2019 #4
To be fair, Biden had fewer days as he entered late, he was tracking to around 29 or 30 million usd Celerity Jul 2019 #41
It's a Iowa poll not a national one. So won't affect who gets in the debates. emulatorloo Jul 2019 #28
15% isn't about who gets into the debates, it's about who gets any Iowa delegates (nt) thesquanderer Jul 2019 #37
the DNC does use single state polls, this just is not one of them Celerity Jul 2019 #42
Thanks! emulatorloo Jul 2019 #43
Another "online poll", with a C+ rating? Are you serious? Tarheel_Dem Jul 2019 #5
Regardless, why couldn't Joe have performed better in this poll? mobeau69 Jul 2019 #7
All the evidence I need is that it's a self selected "online poll" that can be manipulated by any... Tarheel_Dem Jul 2019 #10
And you have evidence that this occurred? mobeau69 Jul 2019 #12
I have no doubt that Biden's numbers have dropped, but not enough to be eclipsed by Buttigieg. Tarheel_Dem Jul 2019 #13
Again, where's the evidence? mobeau69 Jul 2019 #18
The "unskewing of the polls" has commenced! bluewater Jul 2019 #14
I've notice one unmistakable trend already. mobeau69 Jul 2019 #15
That baboon is having a blast, lol. Nt BootinUp Jul 2019 #19
She's writing "Hamlet." n/t Harker Jul 2019 #32
He's working overtime these days. Somebody's campaign should buy him one of these...... Tarheel_Dem Jul 2019 #48
It's no more "self selected" than any other poll. thesquanderer Jul 2019 #38
Believe what you will, but there is nothing at all "random" about an online poll. Unlike an online Tarheel_Dem Jul 2019 #45
Yup and on top of that some are such a joke anyone can vote as many times as they like mr_lebowski Jul 2019 #51
Not all online polls are like that radical noodle Jul 2019 #52
If that's the case, I'd expect them to be rated much higher. n/t Tarheel_Dem Jul 2019 #54
Believe what you will, but you don't know what "online poll" means. thesquanderer Jul 2019 #55
Take it up with 538, its on their site. bluewater Jul 2019 #8
Well that settles it. Tarheel_Dem Jul 2019 #9
That's a dodge Loki Liesmith Jul 2019 #23
"C+" and "online" don't mean people can vote as often as they like. thesquanderer Jul 2019 #16
Ever hear the expression "Please DU this poll"? Tarheel_Dem Jul 2019 #17
No, I've never heard that phrase. But why not look at the methodology before critiquing? nt thesquanderer Jul 2019 #39
it is not a free-for-all 'anyone can vote' poll Celerity Jul 2019 #40
!!! Tarheel_Dem Jul 2019 #46
lol Celerity Jul 2019 #47
538's ratings are based on polls making correct predictions. bluewater Jul 2019 #21
ALL polls are pretty meaningless right now. c+ or otherwise Kurt V. Jul 2019 #26
Nice result for Warren too! Aaron Pereira Jul 2019 #6

This poll doesn't count towards making the debates Indygram Jul 2019 #24
this squares with some recent "on-the-ground" radio reporting in Iowa MBS Jul 2019 #25
Two words that Mayor Pete needs to be concerned about. redstateblues Jul 2019 #27
Definitely a problem state for him, but Cosmocat Jul 2019 #34
But you can't "mulligan" the entire South. n/t Tarheel_Dem Jul 2019 #49
Pete Buttigieg is doing an amazing job. democrank Jul 2019 #29
Another questionable Change Research 1st time Iowa poll. 538 says they're a "right leaning" pollster George II Jul 2019 #30
Man, impressive no matter how you look at it BigOleDummy Jul 2019 #31
Ohhhh, FOR PETE'S SAKE! slumcamper Jul 2019 #33
Very impressive. Look at Mayor Pete go. He appeals to a lot of people. nt Honeycombe8 Jul 2019 #35
Edging forward! Blue Owl Jul 2019 #36
Anti-Biden forces are grasping at straws hahaha n/t Vegas Roller Jul 2019 #44
Mayor Pete is my choice radical noodle Jul 2019 #53
