[catfish1957]

Just saw a banner headline on my news feed that Bloomberg is out.  No details yet.

I can't decide if I want Crazy Bernie to win the nomination outright - or if I want to see the hysteria over a brokered Democrat convention. Could be like the good ol '68 convention in Chicago - all over again.

Is it too early to start collecting money to buy knives for donation to delegates to the Dim convention?

Mike Bloomberg Drops Out of 2020 Race, Endorses Biden

Money can’t buy you happiness, love or class, but billionaire Michael Bloomberg made a $600 million bet that it could buy him the Oval Office.

On Wednesday, the former New York City mayor officially lost that wager, suspending his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination after Super Tuesday primary voters recoiled from the idea of casting their ballots for a candidate who argued that his functionally unlimited resources and business acumen outweighed deep concerns among Democrats about trading one boorish Manhattan plutocrat in the White House for another.

Nice backhanded jab at Trump there.

We are starting to understand why Trump has been so scared to run against @JoeBiden
 

Is Joe reporting from an alternative universe I know nothing about?

Running against Slow Joe is a freaking GIFT.

Especially after they want outlaw them as weapons.

[sneakypete]

Bloomberg is ahead of Biden in Colorado right now.

@libertybele

All those trash people from Ca moving to Denver,Boulder,Aspen,Vale,and Colorado Springs to get away from the disaster they created in Ca is what is responsible for this. Denver alone pretty much controls the vote in Colorado,and the Dims OWN that town.

I wonder where they will move to next,once they have turned Denver into a bankrupt open sewer?

@sneakypete

Pete...  In a sane responsible society, I'd agree.  But when you add the socialist factions, to the entitlement give me stuff factions, added to the brain dead daytime TV Ophra crowd factions, added to the idiot left wing millenials?  I am not so sure.

That is why I am subscribing to your earlier theory that Hitlerly is still some how , some way going to weasel in for another run.  Never underestimate the power of Arkincide, and the Clinton Crime Syndicate, which is infinitely more powerful than the Biden Crime Family.

[PeteS in CA]

I really don't want to crunch all the numbers nation wide, but I would venture that 7-8% of GOP went out of their way yesterday to purposely vote AGAINST Trump.  This is contradictory to the lies that the 100% Trump 100% of the time faction here claim that he has a 94-95% approval rating within the party.

If polled, I'd say "Neither  Approve or Not Approve"......   But will vote for him versus the Socilaist in November anyway.

Since I live in California and Trump got over 92% of the R vote here, that 94%-95% nationwide figure seems pretty plausible to me, maybe even slightly conservative.

I wonder how many Republicans are voting for Bernie so they can watch socialism get crushed in November.

*I* wonder h ow many Dims are voting for Bernie so they can watch socialism get crushed in November? Don't forget,there are still a large chunk of traditional Dim voters who consider themselves to be patriotic traditional Americans who vote Dim to "keep the globalists out of 'murika!". These people grew up in Dim families and have been voting dim for 5 or more decades,and like the dunderhead union workers,STILL think the Dim Party still stands for traditional America.

Granted,these brainwashed fools are dying off at a pretty rapid rate these days and once they have passed the Dim Party can go ahead and just raise the red and yellow hammer and sickle flag for their voters to rally around,but we ain't there yet.

In a couple of states it was 88%.

I realize polls can be gauged to say anything, so last night's CA primary was the best possible way to validate that Trump party support figure.

Thank God the Dems kicked their talented politicians to the curb and narrowed it down to these two decrepit old kooks

Just out of curiosity,who would they have been?

The last "talented Dim politician" to hold the WH was Bathhouse Barry,and what he did best was stutter or sing spirituals while not being white.

"Not being white" is not really a talent.

[sneakypete]

...hmm... the ole faulty, malfunctioning voting machine trick ....who would have guessed?

@libertybele

Well,the Dims keep doing this over and over because it works. They can keep stalling until they find out how many votes they need to win,and MAGICALLY,they mange to find those votes once they "fix" (As in "manipulate" ) the machines.

Stalling the vote doesn't mean diddly squat to the paid homeless people laying on the sidewalk because they would be laying on a sidewalk someone else if they weren't there,and laying on THAT sidewalk while waiting to vote means they will pull in enough money to stay high for a couple of days.

Meanwhile,the people with jobs,families,house payments,grocery bills,kids in school to pick up,etc,etc,etc,have other things to do with their time than stand in line all day watching their fellow voters pop a squat or nod off,so they leave without voting.

[sneakypete]

And at the end of it all, Biden will win.

@240B

Count on it. There is no "gravy" in a Sanders win for the party machine boys and their contacts.

[sneakypete]

Bloomberg said that he would "reevaluate" his campaign tomorrow.
I expect that he and Warren will both drop tomorrow.
Warren has bigger things to worry about.
Now, she has to concentrate on keeping her Senate seat.
And at this point, even that will not be easy.

@240B

Just out of curiosity,can anyone remember the last time a sitting US Senator lost their Senate seat in an election?

[sneakypete]

Republican Pierce Bush, a grandson of former President George H.W. Bush, failed to advance out of Tuesday's primary in his bid for a Houston congressional seat, becoming the first member of his family to lose a race in Texas in more than 40 years.

 

@txradioguy

I am not a religious man,but I am tempted to shout "Thank you,Jesus!"

IMHO,there should be state and federal laws passed making it illegal for anyone named Bush to even file the papers to run for public office. Hell,they should even be banned from ENTERING the DMV to renew their license plates.

Scum sucking treasonous bastards,every damn one of them!

[sneakypete]

Kinda sad, since I was reading that before this election, Mr. Bush was already being touted as a future president.

@Applewood

Of course he was. That is why it was so important to humiliate the buttcrack.

IMO Warren won't drop out until Sanders is no longer a threat.

[catfish1957]

That bitch Warren will leverage her 3 delegates to weasel something out of the ticket right up to the roll call vote.  Count on it.

@catfish1957

I think it MIGHT be POSSIBLE for Slow Joe to have a breakdown so obvious he has to step down part way through the election,and MAYBE leave the DNC in charge of APPOINTING a candidate to run against Trump due to there not being enough time left to run another primary election.

Gee,I wonder who they would pick? Think it might be a certain known money-maker for them that has cankles? Someone that who has ran before and got the popular vote?

@sneakypete

I'd guess more likely he'd Breitbarted instead. 76?  She and Bill would be heartbroken, and happy to save the dim party, using a crisis like an October surprise to win the presidency at minimal cost.

@catfish1957

Well,it WOULD be her patriotic duty even though she is tired and really doesn't want to do it,right?

The Chinese may inadvertently take out the entire Democratic presidential field before their convention...

[IsailedawayfromFR]

IMO Warren won't drop out until Sanders is no longer a threat.

Close, but no cigar.

She will stay because she is the last woman in the hunt.

No Democrat can win without a majority of the woman vote, and Joe has too many groping incidents in his past that turn women off, he will need one to be on the platform with him during the election.

Warren believes she is that woman.
