Redqueen, my dear, I am going to tell you something I don't like to admit. Squinch Feb 2020 #5

I get it - I do. redqueen Feb 2020 #7

I think because most of the sources for it are a pamphlet that was created as a joke - actually Squinch Feb 2020 #9

re: "I think Bloomberg can win. I am not certain that any of our other candidates can." thesquanderer Feb 2020 #13

I disagree. It's more than the money. It's that America Squinch Feb 2020 #24

But in terms of sheer electability, outside of the major metro areas such as NYC, you still have CTyankee Feb 2020 #37

Definitely this will be an issue for some. But on the other hand, for some unfathomable Squinch Feb 2020 #41

You know they will stop at nothing. We'd better be prepared if Mike is our candidate... CTyankee Feb 2020 #42

Yeah. It's going to get ugly. But it will be ugly no matter who it is. Squinch Feb 2020 #43

I feel this way too. Nt mdelaguna Feb 2020 #16

Well said, Squinch MaryMagdaline Feb 2020 #30

Perfectly stated. CrispyQ Feb 2020 #31

This is where I am as well. Perhaps a female VP running mate... SMC22307 Feb 2020 #32

I'd love Klobuchar for Veep! Happyhippychick Feb 2020 #35

It would be a great balance. CTyankee Feb 2020 #39

I think some of it is that compared to the pussy-grabber in the WH patricia92243 Feb 2020 #11

Sorry, but Democrats ... frazzled Feb 2020 #71

Quite Me. Feb 2020 #12

Me, I understand the fear but it isn't a frying pan/fire situation. Squinch Feb 2020 #26

I Agree In That Bloomberg Isn't A Sadist Me. Feb 2020 #34

Yes. I remember that too. Squinch Feb 2020 #40

Kinda funny: "Vote for Bloomber. He's not a sadist." CTyankee Feb 2020 #44

And Bloomberg is all the things that Filthy Donnie claims to be but really isn't. Squinch Feb 2020 #48

It will be. He is avoiding interviews right now but if he continues to saturate the Nanjeanne Feb 2020 #14

The only thing that really matters is beating trump Gothmog Feb 2020 #15

Eye on the ball! Indeed! Nt mdelaguna Feb 2020 #18

Agreed! empedocles Feb 2020 #22

This is a big part of the reason he is my 2nd to last choice (only Sanders ranks lower) dsc Feb 2020 #17

right there with you. wyldwolf Feb 2020 #19

I agree with you. krissey Feb 2020 #27

Beats me. Also how people at DU of all places can forgive his affection for Bush Doremus Feb 2020 #20

Sadly I think that, while this is a disadvantage in DU, it may be Squinch Feb 2020 #28

I suppose. If you're a member of the 1%. Doremus Feb 2020 #49

He's not forgiven. SMC22307 Feb 2020 #36

Let's hope, in our desperation, Doremus Feb 2020 #50

I'm wondering if Sanders is going to surge... SMC22307 Feb 2020 #52

The biggest mistake of our lives was and still is TRUMP. No democrat will ever come close. Vivienne235729 Feb 2020 #57

No, but letting him get re-elected will be. Doremus Feb 2020 #63

It is an issue. That he's even a consideration is really quite sad. Garrett78 Feb 2020 #53

Compared to Trump????? wnc hillbilly Feb 2020 #54

Yep, I don't get it. Nominating him isn't beating Trump. It's giving up hope. kcr Feb 2020 #58

I agree completely. redqueen Feb 2020 #60

I tend to agree Bettie Feb 2020 #69
