      I don't know who needs to hear this, but, again, Michael Bloomberg will not be the Democratic nominee.https://twitter.com/Redistrict/status/1226163688639471617 …

      If this race ever were to come down to Sanders vs. Bloomberg, count me skeptical Biden/Buttigieg/Klobuchar voters would coalesce to "Stop Bernie." Why? Fav/unfav among Dem voters (1/22 @MonmouthPoll): Sanders: 72/24 Bloomberg: 48/31 https://twitter.com/Redistrict/status/1225907702129397761 …

      It's insane that there are people -- not all of whom are drawing a Bloomberg salary -- who say otherwise.

      Totally not insane. Very unlikely, but last night’s debate made it seem more likely than ever, given that it was hard to see anyone on that stage beating Trump, while every swing suburban voter in America would vote for Bloomberg.

      The 2016 election did not turn on swing suburban voters.

      Hillary Clinton actually did fairly well with swing suburban voters -- maybe not as well as she would have if Comey wasn't there, but well. The problem was she lost a lot of WWC to Trump and working class POC who stayed home.

          Yes, both constituencies that will have a hard time voting for Michael Bloomberg.

          Whether Bloomberg is the nominee and whether he can beat Trump are two very different questions. I can easily see the DNC knowingly choosing a loser candidate over Bernie

          Yeah, did wat better than Ibaba, eg, Harris county, Texas. Kind of tough to win though when wwc is 45% of the electorate (accurate figure much higher than exit polling) and you’re getting 30% of that.
