It was just a sudden thing.....there was Mayor Pete for literally a year....all hyped up and ready to move up from Mayor to President. Then suddenly, like a lightning bolt, he was gone.
Or maybe the question should be....was he ever really there?
To be honest, Mayor Pete had a brand that wasn't really captivating to 90-percent of Democrats. He had a weak resume. He wasn't that highly regarded in South Bend. Most blacks didn't have anything great to say over the guy. And it seemed like his chief purpose was to be the first gay President (too late for that....Buchanan was the first).
He did do time as a military reservist.....although folks figured out that he skipped officer training, and maybe his whole story was 'weak'.
My guess is that Mayor Pete will end up on MSNBC or CNN....by the fall period, and stick around for four years as some special analyst, then try to emerge in 2024 again. Course, he might run for Senator, and end up as Senator Pete instead.
