Fox News senior analyst Brit Hume says he’s been impressed by Democratic presidential hopeful Pete Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, whom the network hosted for a town hall event on Sunday night.

“I think Pete Buttigieg is the most impressive, by far, candidate in terms of just raw political talent in the Democratic field,” he said on Monday. “And, he may be the most impressive candidate I’ve seen since the emergence of Barack Obama.”

He praised Buttigieg for being “comfortable on the big stage” and “fast on his feet.”
