DES MOINES, Iowa — Former Secretary of State John Kerry — one of Joe Biden's highest-profile endorsers — was overheard Sunday on the phone at a Des Moines hotel explaining what he would have to do to enter the presidential race amid "the possibility of Bernie Sanders taking down the Democratic Party — down whole."

Unfair, if Jean-Francois only jumps in at the convention.

We'd miss out on the fun of watching him dressing up in bunny suits, fumbling footballs, getting hunting licenses, and ordering swiss cheese on his cheesesteak.

Did you see the photo of Lurch that was part of the article?

He’s had so much plastic surgery and Botox, he should star in an episode of “Botched.”

Soooo, Democrats think that a good way to get Bernie’s supporters to drop him— and to keep Bernie from attracting more supporters— is to put up yet another multi-millionaire who got his money through questionable means?

At least Tom Steyer and even Bloomberg do not come across as stereotypical rich, conceited capitalists who spend their days sipping martinis and eating caviar on the decks of their yachts while barking orders at servants.

If you are a corrupt democrat politician then run for President so you can’t be investigated.
