Fair point, it's certainly not confined to his base. I still feel the underlying negative for him versus the other major candidates is how poorly he polls (50%) in the H2H with Trump when compared with Warren(58%), Sanders(59%) and Biden(68%).Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View Post
As RD3 said though, the demographics he isn't particularly strong with are those which generally vote Democrat irrespective of candidate so perhaps it won't matter if he gets the nod.Comment

Nobody outside Arkansas had ever heard of Bill Clinton before 1992. Obama wasn't exactly a towering figure either.Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View Post
Young guy beats old guy is a well-established trend in American presidential elections.
The counter to Buttigieg is that he really has no experience beyond being the mayor of a medium-size city. I can't actually think of any mayor who has leveraged their job into the national stage. Giuliani maybe.

If those farmers put half as much energing into reducing emissions and pouring slurry into rivers, then they might get more of a hearing.

What's the general expectation on the impact of the GE on price of GBP? I'd have naturally assumed it would strengthen on back of Tory majority, weaken on Tory minority and possibly strengthen in (unlikely) Lab/LD coalition? This could be miles off the mark though!Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View Post Any views?

Does the amount of assets that have now left and plan to leave the uk in the event of a deal and or no deal not mean that the Tories coming to power will reduce the asset sheet for the uk thus drop the currency even if it’s in a predictable manner?Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View Post
Essentially I see the whole uk economy as balance sheet assets in the London and a load of grants and drains in the rest of the country. I know that’s a very basic way of looking at things but I can’t see how anything but a fall post election no matter who wins.Comment

How many lads lost a job making wigets in Blackburn last week hardly scratches it.
Just look at what happened on the night of the brexit vote, Farage admitted defeat even though he had heard different from the polling company (can't remember name offhand), pound goes up, truth comes out, pound goes down, people he knows just happened to make a killing trading currencies that nightComment
