Bloombergs concentration of wealth is immoral but Bernie's millions and estates aren't? Squinch Feb 2020 #52

Thank you! I've self deleted to be safe. Shame it is necessary when speaking the truth. Squinch Feb 2020 #86
But going back to the original question, why is Bloomberg's wealth immoral, but BS's is not? Squinch Feb 2020 #59
You're comparing Bernie's wealth to Bloomberg's? brutus smith Feb 2020 #61
So a few million and a few estates are fine but beyond that it's immoral? Squinch Feb 2020 #63
Ah, but don't you see? What's good for thee is not good for me. apcalc Feb 2020 #77
Hopefully BS will let us know at what level obscene wealth becomes immoral. Squinch Feb 2020 #79
Me too. Sending a couple bucks Amy's way so she stays in until Minnesota . apcalc Feb 2020 #54

New Deal values... Woodycall Feb 2020 #22
Fantastic quote! DemocracyMouse Feb 2020 #33

Bernie is no FDR. Squinch Feb 2020 #67
It has not turned out yet. Premature crowning. emmaverybo Feb 2020 #34
"Pitching the green new deal." AS ALWAYS "calling for" but not actually DOING anything. Squinch Feb 2020 #66
Welcome! blue-wave Feb 2020 #3

While i agree with you, unfortunately Bloomberg is going to make it very still_one Feb 2020 #4
Yes, Bloomberg who after all is a Republican in Dem clothing... DemocracyMouse Feb 2020 #17
I think if Bernie is the nominee, which is the direction it appears to be heading, the stuff that still_one Feb 2020 #50
Yes. And one would think he would be aware of the political dynamics. emmaverybo Feb 2020 #43
Perhaps the next debate will clarify things, and point out the liability that a Sanders nomination still_one Feb 2020 #51
Bloomberg is to blame but not Amy? I like both of them but if you're going to blame one you have to Squinch Feb 2020 #62
I disagree. Bloomberg has unlimited resources that the other non-Bernie block candidates do not still_one Feb 2020 #68
That doesn't change the fact that they are all going after the same voters. Squinch Feb 2020 #71
Sure, but some have significantly more impact on specific candidates than others still_one Feb 2020 #72
But I think that is only because the voters who were left in that Squinch Feb 2020 #73
I understand the reasons. At this stage I would be happy if they unifed behind one candidate in still_one Feb 2020 #74
I would too. And I believe the logical choice is Joe. And if he would just Squinch Feb 2020 #75

I contribute to Joe. Others may drop out but Bloomberg has endless funds. brush Feb 2020 #5

I hope Biden wins in spite of the gop cross over votes in SC.. Cha Feb 2020 #7
Interesting progression there. Every vote update, Bernie inches closer to 50% Bucky Feb 2020 #8
He may be bringing new people in with his promises, but others are fleeing and will flee wisteria Feb 2020 #11
If we were running against President Romney or President Cruz... Bucky Feb 2020 #15
That legislative skills thing? According to Snopes it's a Republican meme DemocracyMouse Feb 2020 #18
Thanks, will Google that Bucky Feb 2020 #23
If they're "fleeing" then they aren't the Democrats they profess to be. brutus smith Feb 2020 #58
For every one he brings, another might drop out. Since his results do not show he has more support emmaverybo Feb 2020 #36
Just sent him some more $! redstateblues Feb 2020 #27
Mahalo, redstateblues! Cha Feb 2020 #30
Thank you. You have made a wise choice wisteria Feb 2020 #10
I like Bernie. He's a good man. His policies are traditional Democratic DemocracyMouse Feb 2020 #20
I thought we should never look to the past. Main complaint about Biden looking to that far off emmaverybo Feb 2020 #38
Bernie's outperforming by 17 percent so far jimfields33 Feb 2020 #70
This is good to hear PatSeg Feb 2020 #12
I don't think some of your info is correct. Kaleva Feb 2020 #13

Americans are sick of Trump, even the deplorables are getting weary. They see Sanders as... DemocracyMouse Feb 2020 #25
The down ballot candidates will be running as far away from Bernie as fast as they can redstateblues Feb 2020 #28
I agree. n/t AirmensMom Feb 2020 #32
I'll get behind Sanders AirmensMom Feb 2020 #29
No. The vodka-swilling underpants Russian Honeymoon will put a searing image into the mind emmaverybo Feb 2020 #40
you convinced me to show my preference Hamlette Feb 2020 #26
I'm waiting for the convention. SleeplessinSoCal Feb 2020 #39
Please. Debates, speeches, big gotcha moments do not demonstrate a candidate's potential emmaverybo Feb 2020 #42
but with only a plurality, and whatever may happen between now and then SleeplessinSoCal Feb 2020 #87
I don't see Warren dropping out unless to form a coalition with Bernie. emmaverybo Feb 2020 #98
Maybe Joe will win in SC unless.. cannabis_flower Feb 2020 #45

I think it's too late to stop Bernie now. totodeinhere Feb 2020 #64
Right because, what? 200 out of 4000 delegates have been set. Its all over. Squinch Feb 2020 #65
No, I am drawing my conclusions from polls showing Bernie catching Biden is South Carolina totodeinhere Feb 2020 #88
Correction: 78 out of 4000. Squinch Feb 2020 #89

Bloomberg should focus on both Sanders and Trump. honest.abe Feb 2020 #69
Bloomberg should drop out. Skya Rhen Feb 2020 #80
He could turn out to be the only thing between us and 4 more years of Trump. honest.abe Feb 2020 #81
No more time left to sway public opinion against Bernie. We need a single centrist to go against him Skya Rhen Feb 2020 #84
Huh? We are just getting started. honest.abe Feb 2020 #85
In terms of numbers of delegates won we are just getting started. But I read here Squinch Feb 2020 #91
Or he could lose to Trump. n/t totodeinhere Feb 2020 #92
My thinking is he will focus on helping Biden win the nomination. honest.abe Feb 2020 #93
I have always said that I like Joe and would gladly vote for him in the GE. totodeinhere Feb 2020 #94
Yes, agreed. honest.abe Feb 2020 #95
Hi, and welcome! TruckFump Feb 2020 #82
I have always liked Joe. But remember that there is also a non-Joe majority in the party. totodeinhere Feb 2020 #90
Biden was not my first choice musette_sf Feb 2020 #97
