1. Bloomberg at 15??

2. He might, ironically, end up helping Bernie.

If he and Biden and Pete split up the centrist vote.

4. I believe Bloomberg is becoming the alternative to Biden.

Those who supported Biden mainly because they thought he would be the strongest candidate against Trump are now having second thoughts and Bloomberg is the obvious alternative for those voters.

5. I hate that idea. Biden isn't in my top 2 but I much prefer him to Bloomberg any day.

7. Agree 100%

Don't hate on the man, but it sickens that someone thinks they can buy whatever they want without having to really work for it. Just throw a wad of money at the situation, seems to be working though.

3. The moderates dominate 51% add Amy it's 54%

Pete's up five points. Bernie's up three and Bloomberg is down 1.

6. Surprising considering Iowa

Glad to see the numbers is up, I thought with the lack of a one night conclusion to Iowa the bump would be minimal if any. Though looking now he has the Iowa popular vote, and is in a virtual tie with Buttigieg for delegates, who knows who will edge out the other with state delegates if either.

But looking at 538's forecast sanders is now at 49% odds of winning, with Biden at 17%, Warren at 8%.

That and Sanders had a huge fundraising month, with $25 million, from over 648,000 people, of whom 219,000 were new/first time contributors.

Looks like some big growth and momentum. The right side of the party is going to have to coalesce around one member soon if they plan on making a run at this.

8. The candidates who aren't too far left need to coalesce around one leader. Biden, Bloomberg,

Buttigieg and Klobuchar had a combined total of 54%.

Sanders and Warren have 36%.

The majority of respondents do NOT want a far-left candidate.
