I’ve also jumped on the Mayor Pete train! He just seems like a person, which is not super common these days, ykwim? Yes. Like so normal.

I’m so on board with Pete at this point he is my number one. misspatty can take 100% of the credit on his introduction to me via this board, but he has absolutely impressed me every time he opens his mouth. I haven’t been this excited since seeing Obama on the campaign trail and I hope I get a chance to be in the audience at a Pete campaign stop this coming year!

When I read the comments on candidate social media posts I am convinced that there are some real asshole Bernie supporters. I know they are not all like that but there are some really loud, obnoxious ones.
I need Bernie to go away.
Mayor Pete will be in my city next weekend. I might be able to go see him!

Beto raised 6 million bucks on his first day, more than Bernie Sanders did. This makes me feel a little better. Can Bernie go away now?

I've been trying to share as much as I can on Facebook about him. I am just so glad he raised enough for the debate. He was SO GOOD in the CNN town hall.

I was honestly surprised by that number but it seems like he may not have actually raised that much. ETA: now people are also saying this is false...so who knows. I was impressed with that number so I'd like to know how this all shakes out.

Ok, this seems to be some sort of Bernie Bro conspiracy theory. Color me annoyed.

I just get irritated now with Beto.
Stop being all flashy and get down with some policy and real talk. Maybe a CNN town hall.
I think they should have gone a conservative route with $$ raised in the first 24 hours. Especially with this TX democrats thing.

He got better with this as the weekend went on and finally dove into policy positions more. He needs to update said positions on his website, though.

Now that I've read more, I honestly think the TX Democrats thing is very possibly not a thing at all. People who know said that there'd be no way for someone to get any of those #s right now as filings for March wouldn't come out until April. So it's pure Bernie Bro speculation at this point.

I'm not sure what Plouffe's specific title is but I'm shocked that these kinds of gaffes are happening within ten thousand feet of the guy I just looked it up, looks like he serves as an adviser. After Beto met with President Obama a few months back, he advised Beto to get in touch with Plouffe. He really needs a campaign manager soon, he can't go on much longer without one. The mistakes made could have been avoided if he had someone in place. Especially when it comes to dealing with the press.

My goal tonight is to learn more about Mayor Pete. Start with his interview on Pod Save America.
