      Agree, the toxin spread pretty far, but Klobuchar and Bloomberg didn't drink it.

      But there's little basis for believing Klobuchar is viable, given how little her NH win did for her nationally. And I think you're underestimating the risks of a Bloomberg nomination to party unity, given that he's the antithesis of what 60+ of young Dems are voting for

      I think your case makes sense for Klobuchar or Cory Booker. But imo, the viable candidates look like Biden, Bernie, and Bloomberg and all have pretty significant issues. Really don't think it's obvious that Bernie's are the biggest

      I have some governing concerns about Bloomberg too. But I think the 50th Senator will be a bigger factor in governing, and MB is more likely to have that be a Dem than Bernie is.

      he's taken standard D positions on taxes, health care, etc., and I think the logic of party government will compel following though on most of them.

      If he wins a self-financed presidential run he'd be beholden to no one in the party. He's already shown no loyalty by giving millions to GOP candidates in 2016 and 2018.

          He literally was funding Republican candidates in 2016 and 2018. See Senator Pat Toomey, who barely won his race in 2016.

          But tax increases with the right anti competitive carve outs for the preferred and properly targeted urban block grants that can be skimmed it milked by the preferred goes a long way in easing concerns.
