You betcha Amy Klobuchar went after Pete Buttigieg! Photo: ROBYN BECK/AFP via Getty Images For a while the sixth Democratic presidential debate in Los Angeles looked like one of those rare events when all the candidates sounded solid and substantive but didn’t mix it up much. A candidate who really needed a good debate, Amy Klobuchar, got a lot of airtime and sounded animated and fluid, if a bit over the top in advertising her down-home midwestern humor.
Klobuchar trained her fire on Buttigieg for a very specific reason, beyond the fact that her long experience in Washington and in statewide politics contrasts sharply with his short resume in supervising a small city. Mayor Pete sits precisely athwart the portion of the Iowa Democratic electorate that Klobuchar desperately needs to win over if she is to survive that contest and move on to other states as an electable-moderate-alternative-to-Joe-Bien.
