Thanks for playing Mini-Mike:

[Bruce_T_Laney]

The nickname "mini-Mike" doesnt even make sense for a guy who is 5'8" and for an obese orange guy to throw out insults, it is a clear example of the pot calling the kettle black

5' 8" is tall if you are 5' 7"...

Anyway, the reality is Mini-Mike got himself ran over by the Democratic Clown Car and in my personal opinion he is done...

 

[HappyJoy]

The nickname "mini-Mike" doesnt even make sense for a guy who is 5'8" and for an obese orange guy to throw out insults, it is a clear example of the pot calling the kettle black

He's 5' 6" maybe 5' 7" at best and he's so insecure about his stature he lied on his drivers license, claiming to be 5' 10".....

Really?

Photos of Trump standing next to others prove he is lying about his height

 

[bendog]

After last night debate it is clear Bloomberg is toast as can be and either Mayor Peter or the Crazy Communist Uncle will win the 2020 Democratic Primary!

Bloomberg poor showing will only strengthen Warren and Sanders and Him ( Mini-Mike ) and Biden will just fall out after Super Tuesday...

So enjoy four more years of Trump and I know those that believe in the Bern will point to polls, yeah and then after November they will scream Russia once again!

Why can't you Democrats run someone worth voting for?

Oh well, so thanks Mini-Mike but no thanks because we already have Trump doing what you will do...


Opinion | Michael Bloomberg’s Monumental Failure to Prepare

Do you really thing that debate will influence the Super Tue primaries? I don't, but I also expect Sanders will win big in CA, and that will probably seal the deal, at least in terms of his having the most delegates at the convention.

I believe Fox ( the poster and not the blithering idiot box station ) is correct and Sanders will not have the Delegates and of so then it become broker...

Now the question is if Sanders has the most Delegates while not achieving the goal of the majority will the party unify and throw their support behind him or will they say " Hell no you damn crazies "?

Also seeing Bloomberg is the major backer will he back Sanders or say let just focus on the down ballot while understanding Trump will win reelection?

I agree with you scenario. And to your middle paragraph question:

" Now the question is if Sanders has the most Delegates while not achieving the goal of the majority will the party unify and throw their support behind him or will they say " Hell no you damn crazies "?"

It seems to me sort of akin to 72. Humphrey actually had more votes than McGovern, and McGovern only had around 25%, but he won the most primaries and had the most delegates … although then CA was winner take all, and I think that sealed the deal. Humphrey withdrew before the convention.

McGovern opened the primary system to more democratic participation, and according to his own statement "20 million people walked out' of the dem party. And the gop went on to win 3 out of the next 4.

I know all but Sanders said "let the system work" rather than nominating the leader (and his hypocrisy knows no bounds since he had a different tune in 2016) But does the dem party alienate all the Bernie "followers?" Imagine AOC. Imo their best option would just be to nominate the 80 year old socialist who LITERALLY never has held a real job. Take the drubbing. And hope the Bernie "followers" learn that it's better to nominate someone with a chance to win.

[toomuchtime_]

Having the "most delegates at the convention" doesn't seal the deal, having a MAJORITY of delegates does and unless things change drastically there's a very good chance that the Democratic Convention will begin with no one having a majority (i.e. brokered convention); According to the revised DNC rules, on the 2nd vote super-delegates can vote and those votes actually count.

This is the problem with proportional delegate assignment and idealism absent common sense candidates like Comrade Sanders.

Well yeah, but how do the dems deny Bernie the nomination if he has the most delegates at the convention without breaking the party? Even is Bernie only has 25-30% of the delegates … they'll walk on the party

Yeah and if they nominate Comrade Sanders, everybody that's not a bleary eyed, idealistic socialist is likely to "walk on the party".

No evidence of this and actually polls show him beating Trump. The same polls that showed Clinton winning by 2-3% and as of now Sanders is higher. Not saying that will last but I wouldn't be making such bold predictions in a 50/50 country.

It's setting up to be a damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario for the Democrats, which is shame since it probably means that 4 more years of Donny is the best option we're going to have.

The clearest message I hear on a consistent basis is Trump has to go, that is the number 1 priority and in a way I've never seen in a previous election. In 2016 Trump was just a candidate nobody really knew what he would bring so some stayed home. Now to many he is a clear threat to democracy so much so that I'd vote for Bloomberg with a smile on my face in the general election and I can't stand that guy.

You are overestimating the anti Trump vote. Even as the Democrats have been drooling out nonsense like calling him a threat to democracy, President Trump's job approval ratings have continued to go up so that at this point Trump's job approval rating is higher than Obama's was at this point in his first term.

He's below 50% and he's been consistently the guy with one of the lowest approval ratings of all recent presidents. And no, I'm not overestimating the anti-Trump sentiment in the Democratic party where base turnout is going to be up. When Democrats actually show up they win. And on average Trump's approval rating is lower than Obama's at this point. You can see a comparison of Trump vs other presidents here: How Popular Is Donald Trump?

I'm sure the Democrats who do show up will vote against President Trump no matter who the Democratic candidate is, but unless the Democrats have an attractive candidate, there won't be a strong turnout. Republicans, on the other hand, are outraged by the Russia scam and the phony impeachment and will turn out in huge numbers to support the President. In addition, Trump polls well among independents who will decide the election.

I'll vote for Bloomberg in the general if he is the candidate. The whole Bernie-bros take my ball and go home attitude that helped us elect Trump in the first place hasn't worked out very well.

There's going to be a high turnout as this will be a referendum on Trump and everyone has an opinion.

I doubt they learn because every election cycle you have a Ron Paul, Dennis Kucinich, and Bernie Sanders...

Bernie Sanders come off as a wannabe Jimmy Carter meet Leon Trotsky on a bad hair day...

Best thing to do is if Sanders is the clear favorite by the Democratic Primary voter then those like Bloomberg should focus on the down ticket elections and let Sanders sink.

Cortez can whine all day all I care and let be factual she is missing a few screws in the head...

November is going to remind me of Mondale getting slaughtered by Reagan in 1984...

I hope he stays in. The circus surrounding him is infinitely more entertaining than most tv programs.

Keep that bulldozer on overdrive lol

If you want the eventual nominee to beat the shit out of a billionaire in future debates, sounds good to me. They'll only look better by comparison.

Warren is a distant longshot. The odds makers give her the same chance of winning the nomination as Clinton has.

Warren isn't the only one running and while she dunked on Bloomberg the most she by far wasn't the only one.

True, but she isn't polling well at this point in her campaign. She will continue to do well in the debates, but even before Bloomberg entered the race, her support was dropping off.

There will certainly be a huge turnout among Republicans but no Democrats but Sanders seems to generate much energy on the part of voters.

Yeah, it sucks. Not nearly as corrupt as not allowing witnesses in an impeachment trial though. It looks as though the candidates will take care of Bloomberg so it doesn't matter much. Who's watching over Trump?

I am on topic, I'm demonstrating our priorities. I'm not intending to vote for Bloomberg except in the general to get the more corrupt person out of office. While you at the same time are complaining about changing debate rules yet ignore the corruption of the guy you would vote for if you could. (Trump)

And lol at candidates fixing anything. The two least insane dems are kept out of the mix.

Now, this is off topic. My point is the Democratic candidates are looking to take care of the guy who got into the debates with the rule change. Those same candidates where I will be able to vote for.

I'd much rather be on the side with a little corruption compared to...well, you.

 

[jc456]

I still find it funny that so many on the left don't care what the policies of the candidates are. They don't seem to care what their plans are. They don't care if they will continue the economy or crash it. They only care that it is not Trump. They could care less if the candidate has said the same racist, woman hating things that they say makes Trump unacceptable.
What it comes down to is nothing more then they hate Trump because he claims to be Republican. If he were democrat they would be defending him with every breath.

The part that worries me about all the democrat candidates is that each appears to want to bring California to the rest of the states. Where we shut off electricity. You can have sewers on the sidewalks. Where theft is nothing to worry about. Trash and needles are considered part of the environment.
The way the Iowa caucuses went shows just how well I would expect Medicare for all to be handled.
Parts of America seem to be heading head long into the European ideal of democratic socialism while Europe is slowly heading into the democratic American ideal.

but they all posted their tax returns. whaaaahooo.
