That's awful but I'm thinking of winning over Trump as being more important. Kablooie Feb 2020 #9

Great analysis. I'd love if he picked Pete for veep Happyhippychick Feb 2020 #4

My guess is Bloomberg would pick Booker or a Hispanic member of Congress. Blue_true Feb 2020 #8

I understand that concern, but, I'm going to correct you reWarren. blm Feb 2020 #5

I really like her and she is a fighter. Kablooie Feb 2020 #10

That wasn't the point. You said you were concerned about blm Feb 2020 #12

I agree that she would probably be a good manager to restore our government when needed. Kablooie Feb 2020 #14

You grouped them together when they are polar opposites. blm Feb 2020 #17

Nah, not polar opposites. Significant differences, but also lots in common. thesquanderer Feb 2020 #26

I agree, I think she'd be the best for that. I'm leaning toward Sanders though for electability and JudyM Feb 2020 #15

She is the best candidate for this moment rainy Feb 2020 #11

You are right, it's time for a woman to lead. Kablooie Feb 2020 #13

I voted for Mike in the CA primary early voting. stopbush Feb 2020 #7

Beyond the money and his willingness to use it against Dump I'm not sure I see the appeal. HarlanPepper Feb 2020 #18

It baffles me as well. Bloomberg may be the least charismatic presidential candidate I've ever Midwestern Democrat Feb 2020 #24

And supposedly, he'll use that money against Trump no matter who our nominee is. nt thesquanderer Feb 2020 #25

I am voting for Michael Bloomberg Awsi Dooger Feb 2020 #19

I went from planning to vote for Amy to going along with my BusyBeingBest Feb 2020 #20

So you have no problem with Bloomberg supporting Graham - $250,000 to a total ass womanofthehills Feb 2020 #28

Luke was almost seduced by the dark side too. Dem4Life1102 Feb 2020 #22

Bloomberg would split the part as much, or more than, Sanders. denem Feb 2020 #23

I'm good with either BIDEN or BLOOMBERG underthematrix Feb 2020 #27

This is me. The Biden spread in the contested states is compelling, Squinch Feb 2020 #29

The only thing Bloomberg is doing in my opinion is insuring Sanders is the nominee still_one Feb 2020 #30

BIDEN gets OBAMA and extremely high PoC and indie turnout and Bloomberg gets us Republicans underthematrix Feb 2020 #32

I hope you are right, but I am not so sure still_one Feb 2020 #33

Hey. I don't have a crystal ball. Your point of view is just as valid as mine. underthematrix Feb 2020 #34

I will go with your crystal ball thank-you still_one Feb 2020 #35

If you want a moderate you should go with Biden. DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2020 #36
