Old rich white guy? I don?t think he fits their agenda from a physical standpoint. I expect to see their candidate be a younger, non-caucasian, possibly even female.

Shows the utter despair that the Dems have fallen into.

What a train wreck a Bloomberg - Trump election would be. Two narcissistic billionaires with god complexes and a divided nation, what could go wrong. Both would happily jump on any conspiracy horse to whip up their respective worshipers if need be....

and Twitter...... The morning constutional pissing match would light the world on fire. Every day.

Bloomberg as a 3rd party candidate would be awesome.

As long as the Say/Do gap is as wide with Bloomberg as it is with Trump, then it wouldn't be so bad.

I hope Bloomberg bankrupts himself losing the nomination.

Bloomberg worries me more than any of the other dems. He has money and organization to do whatever he wants. Look how he has influenced colorado by pouring money into liberal causes.

And this.

I think he'd be a real problem for Trump. And the rest of us if he got elected.

It's kind of funny how money and/or fame wins elections today.

Versus pre, McCain-Feingold, when it was all out war.

Yeah, he was so successful here in Colorado defending John Morse and gang from recalls ... he outspent the recall effort 8 to 1 and lost.

Those older recalls were successful. Not this year. Colorado is more liberal today.

Wait, aren't most of the Dem. runners saying that they hate "Rich, old white guys" as part of their platforms that they are running on? And getting support? And now a rich old white guy has a chance to get elected. Hah. I doubt it. The young mush minded liberal thinkers won't ever vote for him and that's who the Dems are counting on to win the next election.

Oh, don't worry. #NeverTrump to the rescue. They will all have really high turnout no matter who is the nominee, and they will vote for them, just because #nevertrump. Even if hitler himself got the D nomination.

So the issue with bloomberg isn't the college kids and sander's supporters - he would have their vote, billionaire or broke. The issue is, there's a lot of people who won't vote for pure socialists (warren and sanders) but WILL vote for anyone else that isn't Trump.... Like other rich people, billionaires, millionaires, elites, etc.

The recalls this year were tilting at windmills ... they were as stupid as the current impeachment fiasco going on in DC. The Morse, et al, recalls had substance, the recalls this year were a partisan temper tantrum (and I say that as a partisan Republican).

Yes, Colorado is more liberal today but that doesn't mean the recalls that were tried this year would have been successful back then.
