    Bloomberg has zero chance of the nomination.

    He did it in NYC. But was a polar opposite of the platform he's saying now.

    IMO his only saving grace is the media. Which has now shown to the ignorant among the voting populace how deeply entrenched and biased in the D party they are

    But he may have the perseverance and pocketbook to outlast his competition.

    Interesting links Kazoo. To get back to what spqrzilla posted, I recall you posting, way back 2015ish, that if Clinton ran, the Rs could run, and be successful, a can of dried paint as their candidate.

    If nobody wants you, you still can't buy your way into the Presidency.

    This fear of rich guys "buying" elections is somewhat unfounded. There are plenty of elections where the candidate that raised and spent less won. Most of the FUD about "buying elections" is put out there by people that want to restrict political spending as a means of throttling their opponents and empowering the state even more.

    I'm much more worried that Diebold/ESS/Sequoia/SAIC/etc will steal our elections than Bloomberg will buy them.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    Just for the record: Mikey can choke on a whole bag of dicks, while pleasuring himself with a barrel cactus coated in Tabasco and Ebola sauce.

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    In 2016, Hillary spent roughly twice what Trump did.

    While he can't buy the presidential election; lets not forget Hillary didn't "win" the nomination; it was arranged it for her. The question is more who will be the DNC "chosen" one.

    Maybe our best shot is for Bloomberg to get the nomination. The election would still be a trainwreck (of overwhelming bullshit political ads everywhere), but if he has less of a shot than Biden, then lets hope the next "Hillary" gets the nomination, as she had the lowest electability but was the "chosen one" which is how we got here. Maybe they will make the same mistake 2x.

    Biden makes gaffes every two seconds, but he's not hated anywhere near like Obama/Hillary/Trump, so if nominated, T might have a very hard time with him. He's also not a bleeding progressive nut so a lot of people won't struggle as much to vote for him (like they would for e.g. Warren or Sanders) People don't care about Gaffes anymore... EX A: Twitter. This election will come down to "Who is less hated" just like the last.

    Trump wasn't 'the one' with RNC support. Hillary saw a lot of competition and wouldn't have locked it up if she didn't own the DNC at the time. Are the DNC or RNC really in control any more?

    Biden is damaged goods and will get the missteps of the Obama administration pinned to his chest if he goes up against Trump.

    I haven't seen anything from the Dems that has me worried about 2020.
