“She and I are after the same goals,” he said of Elizabeth Warren. “But her pitch has a lot more to do with fighting — she’s more interested in the fighting part of it. I’m more interested in outcomes'
1 / 3 -- Pete Buttigieg is pitching himself as an alternative to moderate Democrats who might not be sold on Joe Biden.
Despite raising a staggering $51 million in 2019, Buttigieg has been stuck in fourth place, between 5% and 7% in national polls. Part of that’s because he’s hard to define. He’s a little-known mayor of a small city. He eschews ideological labels. He blends a message that sounds like Elizabeth Warren with a platform that looks like Biden’s and a courteous Midwestern demeanor that calls for national unity.
Warren has benefited the most from Biden’s sag but she faces persistent questions about whether her policies -- including a public health insurance proposal that would eliminate private coverage -- are too far left for a general election audience.Story continuesHe knows he can’t out-progressive Warren and Bernie Sanders, so he’s sharpening his elbows and depicting his comparably moderate agenda as more viable.
At an event in Dubuque, Iowa, he touted his “Medicare for all who want it” plan and nicknamed the sweeping Sanders-Warren proposal “Medicare for All whether you want it or not.”
