Among all Democratic primary voters, his net favorability — the share with favorable views minus those with unfavorable views — fell 20 points since the pre-debate poll. The drop was driven by men and women, and black and white voters, nearly equally, while his net favorability fell 30 points among self-described moderates — a group that has helped fuel his rise as he has presented himself as a more mainstream alternative to Sanders, a self-described democratic socialist.

1. I am hoping that is reflecting in votes

2. Warren ethered him, I pray Warren has a culturally diverse enough staff to capture this moment.

... Where she's compared to NAS (the progressive version) it's close to Obama's "yes we can" video.

If her swing state numbers pick up I'd be open to a switch

3. +2 among conservative voters??

They love misogyny and sexual harassment.

4. Ends up more popular with blacks than whites?

5. So he's roughly 10% less favorable...

And still above 50% in each demographic group? Bad, but not campaign ending.

6. As much as you all hate Iowa

Bloomberg wouldn't have made it out of the caucus process. He wouldn't pass the vetting.

Bloomberg's surge was based on teevee advertising, not public speaking, not rallies, not coffee klatches, not townhalls, and not neighborhood meet & greets.
