  1. When does Bloomy actually show up on a ballot to be voted for rather than only in my TV commercials...let's see where he falls in an actual race ...

  2. He is still running second or thirdish in the polls in some supertuesday states. Not saying anything for him up or down. Just sayin, if you look at the polls, he is still there in the top-three in many states. Virginia, North Carolina, Utah, whatever.

    He still needs to watched by those who are concerned- fear or hope for- a brokered convention. Not because he will win but because he can be one of the candidates that keeps the vote diluted enough to go to a brokered convention. A little bloomy here and little pokey there and it keeps the vote diluted.

    Mike Bloomberg will continue to hang on. After all, he has been doling out millions to his constituent extreme liberals supporters who love all the monies being thrown at them. They will sing him high praises even though, he will still be at the buttom of the heap having spent probably, closer to a billion real soon. He will try and take the nomination at the Democrat Convention as the Democrat Clown car rolls into town. Never underestimate the buying power of money, should get a chunk of the super delegates for himself. Maybe, not all of them but, some of the super delegates atleast.

    Has Bloomy submitted his tax returns yet btw?
    The cat invented the BB Terminal.... one would intuitively wonder how much of his $60B was made playing stocks. I know if it was me...
    ....Whatever.

    I can promise you though, he's made some money off of stocks. Or his cousin's next door neighbor's brother in law has. Trumpy will know.

    Wouldn't get too excited. Berniebros are not going to vote for him since stealing the nomination is the only way for BB can make it through.

    Vote Bernie 2020!

    I know you're somewhat new here Doc.... but trust me... I'm the last person to get excited about ANY of these idiots. On both sides.

    Buy 3M at the bell.

  10. Camp Biden is obviously gearing up to portray Bloomberg as the biggest villain in America- the guy who is getting Trump reelected by splitting the vote needed to stop Bernie.

    I dont know how Bloomie will do but Camp Biden will unload that venom on to him even if he only gets 5% in some states- although he will get more than that for sure in some states. I don't know. I need to see some real voting rather than just bloviating about Bloomie to form an opinion. But Camp Biden has a view already and they are about to unload a whole lot of vitriol on to Mini-Mike.

    Bloomberg is an easy target. No one likes him. He is a billionaire. He has the personality of a russet potato. He is an old white guy. And he is weird.

    Having said that, let us not forget that he came into the race very, very late and only because it was clear that Joe was lost in space and could not go out on the hunt. Joe has absolutely no one to blame but himself for Blooberg's entry into the race. Joe dicked around, refused to campaign, said goofy things, and generally just beat his chest because he was in the lead from having name recognition- until he wasnt. Joe is only out and about today and last week in South Carolina because an army of handlers have been assigned to him since he represents their best chance to stop Bernie. Otherwise, Joe would be spending the day at some firefighters union hall in Scranton. His comfort zone.

    Anyway. Not to forget how we got to where we are with Biden. I have no love for Mini-Mike and, yeh, spending half a billion and not getting much back is ugly and embarassing. But neither do I feel that he needs to start feeling guilty about Bernie doing well and that he is hurting Joe by not helping him by stepping down. Screw Joe. Joe could have run a vigorous campaign that would have prevented Bloomie from entering and Joe can still run a vigorous campaign and square Bloomie away in that manner. Except that dog don't hunt.
