What are you expecting from Bloomberg tomorrow? [View all]

We all know the other candidates on the stage. They're going to be them, with a minor side eye, or slight to one another. There normally wouldn't be anything major from this crowd I'm not prepared for now. I assume the same for most here. Bloomberg... he's an unknown to me. I admit to hoping our candidates hold him to task. However, I'm curious what you're all expecting?

This debate is before his campaigns planned entrance into the fray. Does that work in the other candidates favor? I'm expecting he's coordinated ads for every statement he has to say. He a deep planner.

I just saw another Bloomberg ad here. Seriously, every commercial break there's one. I'm seeing zero ads from any other candidates anymore. I'm in a Super Tuesday state (Texas) and waiting to vote on Thursday after the debates. I have three top choices and Bloomberg isn't one of them.

Just to be clear. He's just the new unknown added into the mix and I'm curious what you're all expecting?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
