(14,479 posts)The reality is that if Bloomberg runs it will hurt the Republicans far more than the Dems.
Bernie would win for sure if Bloomberg gets in.
If Clinton is the candidate, Bloomberg will win. Seriously, SO many people outside of here dislike or even hate Clinton it isn't even funny. And it won't be funny if she's the nominee because no matter how many people on here support her, she'll lose. She is a lackluster, boring status-quo campaigner who has so much negative baggage she will be like someone sitting in a dunk tank.
Oh, sure, they will call Bernie a socialist, tar him with the hammer and sickle but that won't wash because the stuff he's advocating is favored by a majority of Americans in ALL cases. This is why Bernie will win. This, and the fact that the establishment no longer controls the message.
We do.
