On a cool partly cloudy Sunday, here are some things going on:
From Townhall, why former Mayor Pete Buttigieg (D-South Bend, IN) is confident that he can win over African American voters.
From The Washington Free Beacon, former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg (D) touts praise from former President Obama, of whom he was once "sharply critical".
From the Washington Examiner, could there actually be a Bloomberg-Clinton ticket? (As I said yesterday, his honor might want to consider hiring a food taster. Their ticket would have a problem because they both live in the state of New York, as far as I know. One would have to transfer his/her residence to another state, to enable electors to vote for both. In 2000, vice presidential candidate Dick Cheney (R), who had lived in Texas along with his running mate then-Governor George Bush the Younger, moved back to Wyoming. If I'm incorrect and either Bloomberg no longer lives in New York or HRC has transferred her residence to a house other than the one in Chappaqua, NY, please let me know in a comment.)
