Bloomberg surges in polls

Hey Bernie, beware my friend. The party is getting ready to take the nomination away just like they did in 2016.

Even deep, hard core democrats aren't ready for your socialist platform. What they will do is accept your support for the candidate they choose.

Yes, all of the sudden we have a new plateau for getting on the debate stage and all of the sudden, "polls" get Bloomberg to that plateau. If I was a Corey Booker supporter or even a Kamala Harris supporter, I would be outraged at how the party is behaving and I would sit this election out.

All that we need now is a tarmac meeting between President Obama and the head of the democratic party. LOL!

These woke Democrats are going to choose this ultra rich white racist male, because hes going to spend whatever he has to spend to take all of them out. Bernie wont be easy, but he will be bought too.

Re: Bloomberg surges in polls

They will gang up on him Wednesday, and beat him down because he has zero personality and doesnt know the issues. It wont matter though because 10 minutes after the debate ends he will buy 200 million dollars in new ads.

Nobody that’s paid taxes for any period of time would actually vote for Bernie Sanders.

A college professor that’s never had a job is not the man or woman we need in the big chair.

However tongue-in-cheek it was, I did chuckle that you’re asking for Harris and Booker supporters to protest by staying home on Election Day.

Thats a bit of wishful thinking on your part - I predict a groundswell of (the relative) youth vote - the same type that delivered Slick Willie to Pennsylvania Avenue in 1992.

The Battle or New York will come down to who can mobilize and close millennials.

Wally - “close” is a sales term meaning to solidify, seal or otherwise deliver an actual sale.

Re: Bloomberg surges in polls

Bernie is crazy as hell, but he has the millenials attention with all the goodies. Bloomberg can buy and sell Bernie, it just cones down to how much it is going to cost him. Bernie believes the nonsense he spews at least, Bloomberg has already done a complete makeover and will do ten more if he has to. Trump has charisma but he isnt a good debater, but he would clobber Bloomberg.

Just as a thought

I am entertaining the thought that the Democrat insiders want all of the candidates to continue running so that no one will get the required delegates to win in a manner that would lead to a brokered convention. That way the insiders will pick who they want and Bernie isn't on the list.
Additionally by keeping them all in the race each candidates backers will be kept active and will be able to be led like cattle to vote for the "chosen one."
Primary elections often have very interesting outcomes and at the moment I think we are going to see a big one this time.
Just sayin...

Re: Just as a thought

How about Bloomberg and Bernie? Its a horrible twosome, but it might work. Bloomberg at the top of the ticket and for being VP, he gets a handsome payoff.

Re: Just as a thought

I dont think Bloomberg is very well liked, so he could use Bernie.

Re: Just as a thought

Personally I myself think they might go for Hillary. Those limousine liberals want nothing to do with socialism beyond handing out some freebies here and there. Imagine if you can the Kennedy family finding out their wealth will be confiscated for socialism purposes...or Obama or any of them. Heck at local level some of those local Democrats would lose their pensions in order for everyone to get a pension.
I just don't see the inside Democrats wanting anything to do with Bernie
JMHO

Palin, this group of younger voters will not leave mommy's house long enough to vote. LOL. Most of them won't even take the time to enter the polling locations into their GPS.

We old folks will get one more chance to shut down the socialist. After that, they may just stop suckling long enough to vote.

Re: Bloomberg surges in polls

As someone whom is opposed to frump, it pleases me to hear that you’re counting on the Youngs not showing up.

I hope you’re wrong.

If they don’t vote - they deserve what they get.

I would just hope that the young ones actually study the issues and more importantly the practical side of this "free stuff" campaign. We know it's not sustainable. We know even Bernie can't put a price to it. I hope youngsters realize that.

If Bernie isn't the candidate of the young then my guess is they would be for Mayor Pete because they tend to be more understanding of lifestyles, racial issues, etc... than we old folks.

Re: Bloomberg surges in polls

I think the young people will get out and vote for Bernie, because he is the GodFather of Freebies. If Bloomberg steam rolls Bernie i dont see them backing him in any large numbers.

and her friends were enthralled by Obama and his campaign promises. Now she can't stand him after graduating and in a very well paying good position.
She says today "Dad you were right...I didn't realize just how much taxes are much less the cost of future freebies."
Amazing how young idealistic minds can be fooled until a dose of reality hits them.

This is what is drilled into their heads from the 4th grade on, how to be good little Socialists.

In our youth, most of us were open minded dreamers. We too thought we could change the world. Then we woke up. We went to war, we got jobs, we paid taxes. We found out that nothing is free and that's when they weren't even giving it away.

These new left wingers are pandering to a group of young voters who were never told no. They are the generation of "everybody gets a trophy" and "it's the teacher's fault, not yours". They have been taught to believe everything advertised as free is actually free. Eventually they will learn that nothing is free. Someone even pays for the hole you are buried in.
