There was just an interesting discussion on Nicolle Wallace's show. Jason Johnson said the black community is looking at Bloomberg, cuz they are afraid Trump will win. It's not on-line yet.
I think a lot of people like Bloomberg for that reason. trump has an unbelievable war chest of money built up. Far bigger than any candidate.....except Bloomberg.

Agreed. That Jason made that point was equally fascinating. Beating Trump beat every other consideration. And since, in the view of that slice of the community knows, felt that was, by far, the most critical issue, they would vote for Bloomberg and turn out enthusiastically. I was surprised.

How can the progressives be the minority when Bernie and Warren keep getting so many votes?

Can you explain that? Your logic is weird-lol.

They are both in the top three and they split the progressive vote.

If the progressives are in a minority why are they winning in the polls?

As Silas in the Warriors said:" can you count sucker"-lol?

Jason Johnson is full of shit if he believes that..

The more the African Americans learn about Bloomberg's stop and frisk and Bidens 1994 crime bill the more they will move to Bernie. The Black kids already like Bernie and Warren.

Bernie and Biden won most of the Black vote in Iowa and they will win most of the Black vote in South Carolina and across the nation.

Bloomberg will be capped at some low number below Bernie and Warren.

Hide and watch.

My guess he knows that and intends to be a power broker at the convention.

And if he throws his delegates to Buttigieg, and he wins, all the progressives I have talked to are fine with Buttigieg. Because progressives are smart and they know Buttigieg is smart.

He could be a great president.

"The progressives will never vote for Bloomberg, so he has no chance of winning"
Progressives are a minority of the party. S&W got 44% in Iowa, and the two most recent NH polls are 37% and 39%.
