Poll: Bloomberg overtakes Biden in Florida

You may have a legit point here. His gun-control stance is not going to play well at all in a lot of places. But then I'm not so sure those places will vote Dem, anyway.

Oh there are lots of union areas that normally vote dem, but might not if the dem candidate is a hard core gun banner. Bloomberg is far worse than say Obama when it comes to that issue.
 
Of the two, which would you support?

That is a tough question. I suppose if you held a gun on me and forced me to choose one or the other I'd choose Hillary. Better the devil you know. But I don't want to vote for either and I damn sure wouldn't vote for both. Of course, never say never. I hoping neither will be on the ticket.

Expect Hil to be Bloomberg's vp candidate at a brokered convention. It is in the works.

Because she has command of the Swamp, which he needs, and this bitter old hag wants the glory.....Plus she then very well might be the first President with a vagina....Which is what she needs to make her life whole.....and with the Clintons it was always all about them......yes?

She's shed some pounds, had a makeover, a new do, is appearing more photogenic, looking younger than she has in decades, all the moves to burnish a public image. Why not one more back door effort?

 
As is Bernie a risk.

What will remain to be seen, is whether the party's progressive wing will hold their noses and vote for Bloomberg in a response to Trump. Yes, that's a big risk. But then the whole election's a huge risk. In addition, we must weight the broader appeal Bloomberg may have with Indies, disaffected moderate Republicans, and those Dems & former Dems that crossed-over for Trump in 2016. This last demographic, just like the "Reagan Democrats" of 1980, (just barely) gave Trump his win in 2016, and they are a key element to wining back 2020.

They wont, I guarantee it. Bloomberg is everything most progressive democrats have ever claimed was evil. How would they ever be able to have anything to say against the GOP again by electing him? He is the caricature of what not to vote for.

It wasn't the progressives that crossed-over.
