'You'd still rather be Bernie Sanders than anybody else,' said former Obama campaign manager David Plouffe.
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders is shaping up to be the most"viable" Democratic presidential candidate for Super Tuesday, David Plouffe, the political strategist who led former President Barack Obama's 2008 campaign, has said.
His comments came as Sanders rose to victory in the New Hampshire primary contest, beating former South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg by just over 1.6 percent, with 95 percent of the votes counted. "Even Amy Klobuchar had a great night," Plouffe said. But, he added:"It's quite possible that this is the best night of the entire campaign for her, because she's now got to put together a national campaign overnight."
The question now, the former Obama campaign manager said, was:"Is somebody going to emerge out of this group, with Bloomberg looming, to be the person where most of the political support, the voting support and the financial support goes or does it stay muddled again?""He's got the money...He's raised not quite a historic amount of money but close to that. This will help him," Plouffe said. Also, he said, Sanders has"passionate grassroots volunteers.
