> [@pjacks](#): > > Yeah he will win Iowa and then lose every other state. I hope that pointless sole win gives you comfort just like HRC’s meaningless popular vote win does. We’ve had good polls in NH as well and that’s great being in the backyard of both Warren and Sanders. As of today. I’ll guess that NH finishes in a virtual 3 way tie with all 3 picking up roughly the same number of delegates. NV is a difficult state to poll, who knows what will happen there. Biden steamrolls in SC. ---

We are #TeamPete and this is the most grassroots campaign I’ve ever been associated with. Even us volunteers get access to a lot more information than I’ve see from any other campaign, even local ones. ---

> [@CarnalK](#): > > Lol, I doubt it if you are arguing’ bout the good old days in gay bars dalej42 frequented. I’m 32 and have been going to Chicago gay bars since I was 16. That’s half my life. But I’m no aging queer and I don’t get into “slap fights.” Nice attempt at homophobic emasculating though. ---

My apologies. Please tell us more of gay bars of yore. This is the Buttigieg thread, after all. ---

I never said she was against it and I am quite certain you know what I’m talking about, so no cite necessary. ---

The last two pages of this thread encapsulate this primary. Petty disputes by the chasing pack candidates which will only serve to help Joseph Robinette Biden Jr cruise to the nomination. ---

Yes, and that’s a problem because he’s a fucking shitty candidate who’s going to lose to Donald Trump. ---

No. He’s a shitty candidate who is not going to get the nomination. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/who-is-pete-buttigieg/831032.md?page=30) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/who-is-pete-buttigieg/831032.md?page=32)
