No matter how the primaries turn out, Pete needs to be on the team.

I really like him but he's only 37. And, quite frankly,, I don't see small town or rural Michigan voting for a gay guy. I would be fine with him, and the thought of so many evangelical and trump supporters heads exploding when Pete and his husband have the first dance at inauguration day would be priceless, but I just don't see it. I'm supporting Biden but basically its VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO.

a "starter" or "non-starter". That is what the primaries are about.

my opinion of him soured. They were talking about how Pete contacted the media before contacting victims' families, etc.
Pete's a really smart guy, extremely articulate. He knows exactly what to say, but I'm not sure I believe him anymore. And that's unfortunate.
