It seems very suspicious for him to suspend his campaign at this time. Why not wait to make a decision until after "super Tuesday"?

I have a feeling that some behind the scene deal making and promises had been made to him for him to drop out at this time.


Behind the scenes deal making? In politics?! Sounds far fetched...

That was sarcasm, btw.

Pete was the most likely candidate to take enough delegates on Super Tuesday to prevent anyone from breaking 50%. He may very well have been offered Secretary of Treasury if he dropped out before Super Tuesday. I don't think they are in a position to offer VP or Secretary of State this early.


I think that he would be offered the Secretary of the Interior Posterior position.

Dear lord I get tons of junk mail from Mike Bloomberg every day.

What a waste of money. No one should be that rich.

Yep, looks like the dems are in full panic mode about the possibility that Comrade Bernie will win the nomination.

I know that Mayor Pete is out of the race but I wanted to impart a little knowledge here.

He was not the first openly gay presidential candidate. That distinction goes to Fred Karger, who ran for president in 2012 as a republican.

Mayor Pete to endorse Biden today alongside Klobuchar.

Republicans quickly to resume pretending to care about “Burisma” non-scandal.

Sadly, Buttigeg and Klobuchar were the only two Democrats that I seemed to like.

Dropping out within 48 hours of Super Tuesday. Someone from the DNC must have called and said “how’s the family?”
The President is a fink.
