Bloomberg - Really?

But the majority of the vote was split among the moderates. Bernie has emerged as the progressive candidate, the moderate candidate has not been settled on yet. And Bernie self-identifies incorrectly, he's a social democrat. Social programs are not socialism. If they were, we'd already be a socialist country. Ownership of the means of production by the government is socialism, and Bernie isn't pushing that, just social programs. Maybe he privately wants actual socialism, but that's not what he's running on, and I doubt that he wants to move the USA to be more like Venezuela rather than more like the social democracies of Europe (which are also not socialist).

Okay. Would you vote for Bloomberg if he was the nominee?  Can't get more capitalistic than he.

I know this question was directed at SUNGULA, but for my part, if Bloomberg is the nominee, he has my vote. I can't emphasize enough how much worse the Trump administration is for the country than ANYONE still viably running for the Democratic nomination. Frankly, Bloomberg may have what it takes to beat Trump in the battleground states and all I ask is that we run someone who can win and is a competent functioning adult who respects the rule of law. But even if we elect a nominee I don't think can win (like Bernie because he doesn't fly that well in the battleground states), they will still have my vote in the national election.

I reckon the only improvement in a Bloomberg government will be that the racism will be better disguised.  He's running on a ticket of 'to beat the republitraitors, we must become republitraitors!"

And if he truly want to stop Dumbfuck, he'd have primaried against him.

I think Bernie Sanders is a nut and that his supporters are even nuttier. But I'm not even bothered by the fact that he's the front-runner for the democratic nomination. All I care about is removing Trump.

I ordered two of the stickers for my truck.

Mild Social Democracy (the political philosophy most of Europe is running very successfully under) is nutty now? Huh

They aren't even having Republican primaries in some states, like SC. There's no credible way to primary against Trump if the state RNCs is going to suspend primaries.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
