Hours after Pete Buttigieg released his list of clients at McKinsey, the left already had a nickname teed up for him: “Pete Romney”
Buttigieg has long argued that Sanders and Warren’s eat-the-rich message is “not unifying” and raised concerns about how policies such as free college would play in a general election. But by highlighting Buttigieg’s time advising the insurer to cast doubt on his ability to defeat Trump, progressives see a chance to take one of the young candidate’s main critiques of his left-wing rivals and train it back on him.
Des Moines Register poll showed him ahead in the first-in-the-nation caucus state in November, his rivals for the most part didn’t lay a finger on him. Murshed Zaheed, a former Harry Reid aide who is backing Warren, has taken to calling him “Pete Romney”: “Pete sort of invokes those soulless, white-collar, elitist D.C. politicians … They sort of paint themselves as whiz kids, but deep down they are essentially soulless, heartless technocrats for corporations who are just here to maximize profit.”
