Beyond that, Strib does note:
Buttigieg’s endorsement comes as the battle for endorsements has been a central focus of the U.S. Senate race.
Her Democratic opponent, Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan, has distinguished herself as the progressive Democrat in the race, racking up support from progressive titans including Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. She’s also won the support of dozens of state lawmakers, Attorney General Keith Ellison and former U.S. Sen. Al Franken of Minnesota.
Craig, a fourth-term representative in the competitive Second District, has won the support of over a dozen unions and has the backing of big name Democrats in Washington, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Former U.S. Rep. Colin Peterson of Minnesota, one of the co-founders of the moderate Democratic Blue Dog Coalition in Congress, has also backed Craig.
“We are obviously at a defining moment in the life of our democracy,” Buttigieg said. “It’s a time when the noise and the division can feel overwhelming, but we have leaders like Angie who reminds us what public service is really about: Listening, solving problems and delivering results that actually make a difference in everyday life.”
So, the future of the Democratic Party as remaining viable and sensitive to will of the people, that is behind Flanagan. Craig gets the tired old leadership, the Clinton-types. No contest. Progress rocks.
UPDATE: Any bets on who the big-buck donors prefer? Any guess on which candidate gets their money?
Go figure.
