LEFT WING LOONS Title: Buttigieg claims 2nd, Warren sinks in new US 2020 poll Washington (AFP) - Political wunderkind Pete Buttigieg rocketed into second place in the Democratic presidential nomination race, polling showed Tuesday, with support for progressive ex-frontrunner Elizabeth Warren sliding as voters sour on her universal health care proposal. Buttigieg, the moderate millennial mayor of South Bend, Indiana, leapfrogged the race's main liberal candidates, Warren and fellow senator Bernie Sanders, to claim second behind the resilient national leader Joe Biden, according to Quinnipiac University's latest poll. Former vice president Biden leads with 24 percent among Democratic voters and independents who lean Democratic, a rise of three percentage points and a reclaiming of pole position since Quinnipiac's last poll on October 24, when he trailed Warren. Buttigieg jumped from 10 percent to 16 percent in that timeframe, while Warren's support was halved, from 28 to 14 percent, and Sanders slid three points to 13 percent. The survey of who Democrats want to challenge President Donald Trump in November 2020 shows billionaire former New York mayor Mike Bloomberg, who only recently launched his presidential bid, tied for fifth place with three percent support. Quinnipiac's poll of 1,355 voters comes just nine weeks before the first votes in the nominating contest are cast in Iowa, where 37-year-old Buttigieg has stormed into the lead. The figures are unwelcome news for Warren, who was riding a growing wave of support in recent months, only to see it crash amid opposition to her Medicare for All proposal that would do away with private health insurance. "Buttigieg has broken into the top tier, apparently at the expense of Warren, who has taken a dive after being hammered for being too far left on health care and other issues," Quinnipiac polling analyst Tim Malloy said in a statement. Buttigieg and Biden oppose Medicare for All, instead offering proposals that would broaden health care coverage to more Americans without ending private insurance, as the plans backed by Warren and Sanders would do. Medicare for All has grown increasingly unpopular among American voters. According to Quinnipiac, 36 percent say it is a good idea, while 52 percent say it's bad. In late March that spread was 43 percent to 45 percent. Buttigieg still remains in fourth place in the national poll aggregate compiled by RealClearPolitics, behind Biden, Sanders and Warren.
Poster Comment: Buttigieg, the moderate millennial mayor of South Bend, Indiana The people in Bendover, Indiana may be happy electing a homosexual socialist as their mayor, but then it's quite a leap from the squalor of Bendover to the many times disgraced White House. However, we've contended (Even as we watched the nation decline further) with rapists, a Negro socialist, LBJ, two Bushes with the only respites being Ronald Reagan and now Donald Trump. Somewhat tarnished Trump seems like a gift from God. So toss him out and let the socialists and communists run everything like they've done throughout history. Or, we could reelect Trump and all Republicans then ride Congress' ass to move them as far right as possible. Warren is a fun candidate her 52 trillion dollar health care for all is so absurd it's fun to come up with new ways to demonstrate how much 52 trillion dollars is.. my new one I figured out is if you were to print 52 trillion dollars in hundred dollar bills .And could print 100,000 an hour it would take 59,250 years to print 52 trillion dollars . Or 52 trillion dollars is equal to a stack of 100 dollar bills 35,858 miles high or 179 times as high as the international space station.
