After racking up a big win in Nevada, Sen. Bernie Sanders is in a commanding position in the 2020 Democratic presidential race...we’ve reached the point where it will be hard for establishment Democrats to stop him without inflicting a great cost on their eventual nominee...The only way to avoid that outcome at this point would seem to be either have all other candidates drop out and unite around one of the more center-left Democrats...Or, alternatively, have Bloomberg unload a blizzard of negative ads targeting Sanders.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtonexaminer.com ...
So now, they have NO ANSWER for Bernie and his followers. They cant say Socialism is bad, because they have ALWAYS been going that direction.. There is no stopping that train now.. its going to be ugly.
And another thing... never underestimate the stupidity of the Majority... this may be scary...
he nearly 80 and been in the senate for decades.
Three small states.
Hardly means anything yet.
well yes and no, advertising pays and that’s why Bloomberg is at 15% and his debate can be buried.
If you doubt advertising gets results just think of how some brands like Pepsi or Coke dominate or on the flip side how everyone would be buying and talking about Hoka shoes, superior to Nike but Nike spends 3.3 billion on advertising.
The best news is if Sanders doesn’t wrap this up early and dems keep fighting each other and spending $s fighting each other
they are 3 small states but Since 1952, (other than 1968 when LJB withdrew after Iowa and New Hampshire), I don’t see a nominee of either party who didn’t come in at least 1st or 2nd in either Iowa or New Hampshire. And there is a legacy of whovevr came in 2nd last nominating cycle to get it now-e.g. Hillary Clinton, McCain cuz organizations in place so that would be Sanders
e.g. Reagan came in 2nd to Bush in 1980 in Iowa but won New Hampshire . In Iowa, 1992 with an Iowa Dem Senator running, and sex scandals breaking Bill Clinton finished 3rd or 4th if you count uncommitted, but finished 2nd in New Hampshire. McCain came in a close 4th in Iowa in 2008 and won New Hampshire , these are the poorest finishers I have found and note they each came in either 1st or 2nd in one of the two. So if this holds its probably Sanders.
Blomberg introduces something new and that is $1 billion but after his bad debate performance it will cost him another $400 million. Biden might defy history because the country has higher % “people of color” in other states but I don’t think so.
We probably want them to hang in there as long as they can so they use up their $s and attack each other and not Trump
So the Hispanics gave Bernie the win. Well the rats wanted them here. Quite the backfire happening.
I read earlier that Bernie is doing exceptionally well with Hispanic voters.
The timing would be perfect for Trump to ask each one of Bernie’s Democrat opponents if it is alright for illegal aliens to vote for Bernie in the primaries!
;D

The supposedly more moderate lane is still fragmented, with Joe, Pete and Amy splitting that vote.
Pete and Amy with particularly scant black support and Joe has mostly lost white Dems, so Bernie gets the benefit of split opposition.
Here are some suggestions for billboards against any Democrat who is still standing:
“Warren: Not a real Red Indian but still a real rich Red”.
“Bernie: Old reds never die; they just smell that way”.
“If you feel the Bern, you need Preparation H”.
“Re Bloomberg tried, via “Stop & Frisk”, to stop armed criminals from killing innocent people. The other Democrats want to keep criminals armed and dangerous. There is a difference”.
“If Bernie Sanders and Typhoid Mary had a daughter, her name would be Liz Warren”.
“If Peter Buttigieg had a son, he would be a “Junior Peter”.
“Bernie, a Marxist with three houses is called a Fake Commie” or just “Greedy”.
Waldo asks “Where’s Tom Steyer?” America answers, “Who Cares?”
“Bloomberg, with his campaign money, has done more for the American economy in a few months than Obama did in 8 years”.
“If you loved Stalin, Khruschev, Breznev and Putin, you’ll love Bernie.
“Bernie Sanders, now starring in a remake of “All In The Family” featuring guest appearances via films by Stalin, Khruschev, Breznev, and Putin, with Liz Warren as Edith, and Rob Reiner, again, as RedMeathead”.
“If Bloomberg can have three terms (instead of the legal two) as mayor of New York, then Trump can have three as President”.
“Re Democrats and the homeless/drug addicts and criminals: coming to your main streets and back alleys if they win the presidency”.
The red tint to Bern’s skin is indicative of excessive blood pressure.
Media induced or not via filters, he looked like he had a major sunburn with that obvious change to his normal pasty white complexion
Bernie beats the next 3 even if they combine their votes, and Wonder Woman
Klobuchar barely a heartbeat after crowing about New Hampshire.
Bernie 47 rest 44....
Denying Bernie the nomination will cost the Democrats the election... Then again, selecting Bernie will cost the Democrats election... Hmm!
This Democrat debacle is deliciously enjoyable... The only bright spot for Democrats... Mitt Romney will likely join their ranks, offering them yet another loser candidate for the 2024 Presidential race when Ivanka takes up the Republican standard.
Bernie just stay alive till November 4, 2020.
I'm not too worried about Sanders!
Scary that many Rats support such a rapid destruction of the Country.
Sanders’ growing acceptance increases the “legitimacy” of socialism. This goes far beyond Sanders.
Very unlikely Sanders can win POTUS, but the number of those eager to support what he’s selling is very unsettling.
The flip side is that I wonder if Bloomberg has reached a tipping point in his advertising. He needed the ads in states where he had no name recognition, but now he has so heavily saturated the airwaves with them that people must be getting sick of him.
