Or someone like Bloomberg could get those voters

The way I see it, there are the Born-Again Christian Republicans, who, along with their other Tea Party compatriots represents a wing of the party who have as much antipathy for Republicans that they don't like as they do Democrats. The nominal Republicans who are not in that camp are not going to support someone like Trump or Cruz. But they also have been conditioned to hate Hillary and to think Bernie is crazy. Thus, where do those voters go? Maybe Bloomberg?

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
