The Just right Candidate.. thought you would enjoy this

Hi Gang.. as hopefully most know, I am not posting in the primary forum till after caucus https://www.democraticunderground.com/1287410970 ..

I am just trying to keep a clear head.. problem is I heard something so wonderful and I cannot post it in the General Forum.. so I can share it here.

You know what they are calling VP Biden in Iowa?? The Goldilocks candidate.. I had to ask why..

Sanders and Warren are too hot (people are up to their ears with screaming with Trump.)

Buttigieg is too cool (People like him, but he is almost too cool, they need a little more emotion)

Biden is the Goldilocks candidate because he is just right!.. He is easy to live with

I think that bodes very well for VP Biden.. So if you hear the term Goldilocks candidate, it came out of Iowa!! I think..

Plus I love the whole Goldilocks meme--just right.

But then, we knew that from the start.

Independents at the Iowa Caucus in the last election voted for Bernie Sanders.. Peggy, there are no Independents at a Iowa caucus. You have to be a registered Democrat to vote at a caucus.. You can change your affiliation as you come in if you want, but you have to register as a Democrat.. so isn't that interesting

That's a nice overview and it certainly rings true to me. We are all so tired of anger and yelling. As for Buttigieg, I couldn't quite put my finger on what bothered me about him, "almost too cool" could be it. I certainly don't dislike him, I just have no real feelings about him at all.
