The Democratic 2020 crusade to oust President Donald Trump could not have got off to a more disastrous and embarrassing start | Analysis by StCollinson
The party couldn't even deliver a first-in-the-nation election night winner after a vote-reporting debacle in Iowa — where candidates spent months and millions of dollars vying for a glittering opening prize in their nominating duel."Iowa, you have shocked the nation," said former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg. It was a bold attempt to declare victory in the absence of a result, but the 38-year-old inadvertently cast an ironic judgment on a political train wreck.
"By all indications, we are going on to New Hampshire victorious," the Indianan said.If Buttigieg did in fact pull out the win he claimed, he will be the victim of one of the worst robberies in modern political history. It's not a stretch to say that a win would've compared with the seminal Barack Obama triumph in 2008 that sent the then-first-term senator on the road to the White House.But the mix-up could also hurt Vermont Sen.
