      This Dem voter-vs-Dem operative/donor divide is fascinating. But I also wouldn’t completely dismiss elite Dem opinion — many of their jobs are tied directly to winning races and uniting the party. They’re not always right, but they have a clear stake in the outcomehttps://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/1192581882317279235 …

      Remember, satisfaction among actual Democratic voters with their field is *very high* ... record-breaking by some measures. While Bloomberg's potential effects are interesting to explore, the main story here is the out-of-touch-ness of the D donor class with Democratic voters.

      And right now, they’re seeing a Top 4 field consisting of: — a vulnerable Biden — a stalling Warren and worries about M4A — a Pete who might not have upside with diverse voters — and a Bernie who just had a heart attack

      Moreover, among this Top 4: — all are white — 3 are 70+, the other is 37 — 3 are from the East Coast/New England — none has won a statewide general outside the East Coast/NE The party also is more divided than ever by ideology and age.

      Now Bloomberg isn’t the answer here — he’s 70+, white, and would have a difficult time uniting liberal and moderate Dems. And most polling shows that the Top 4 *can* beat Trump. But if you want to know why elite Dems are worried (and they’re *always* worried) that’s why

      The rational response to this situation would be to try and boost Klobuchar, Harris or Booker. The crazy response would be to encourage Bloomberg to enter the race.
