Bloomberg is rich, aloof and imperious — is this really what Dems want for president?
Fox News ^ | Jan. 13, 2020 | Mary Anne Marsh

The curious campaign of Michael Bloomberg raises a question: Can a billionaire buy the Democratic nomination? In his late bid for the nomination that skips the first four contests, which historically launch the nominee, Bloomberg has placed a big bet that big bucks can overcome all.

Bloomberg has a history of short-circuiting the traditional political process and winning. The hallmarks of his victorious mayoral races in New York City were an overwhelming financial advantage, a blizzard of ads that saturated the airwaves, piecing together a disparate coalition, and little personal contact with voters.

Yes, the dems will forgive anything.

Just like, on the flip side of the coin, they don’t really hate Trump’s tweets or his style. You could have given to Trump Buttgeig’s exact style and demeanor and they’d have attacked it too.

The only thing that really matters is which side they are on. For the dems, all is forgiven. For the republicans, all is bad.

"rich, aloof and imperious"

Definitely fits the classic Democrat Party profile:

-John Kerry
-Obama
-Hillary
-Hollywood Donors
-Wall Street Donors
-Ivy League School Graduates

Yes, democrats are always looking for a commissar or dictator. Remember when Frnak Rich lamented that Obama was constrained by the constitution, unlike the Chicom leaders?

Mark Green was a terrible candidate and Guiliani backed Bloomberg. It’s not that difficult to see how he was first elected.
