one suspects tonights alleged debate will have little to no effect on bloomberg because

hardly anybody watched it compared to the tens of millions who see his incessant ads ... well Ive never actually seen a bloomberg promotion anywhere but I hear he has lots of them

And those short clips will have more of a brutal impact than if someone sat through the entire debate.

Warren’s attacks on him will fade quickly. Just the way it is.

8. You are correct. Very few voters watched this debate, which is now in the rearview mirror.

Mike haters are gonna gloat, but it doesn’t matter because he’ll keep running his ads everywhere.

And the next debate the field will not be able to rehash what were fairly effective attacks on each other. Been there, done that. Don’t need another food fight.
