Biden is going to reclaim his support lost to Bloomberg

This is the first time a national audience saw Bloomberg in person, unfiltered and vetted. He didn't do well.

The idea of Bloomberg pumping hundreds of millions on ads made him go above Biden. Biden had his name smeared by Republicans during the impeachment inquiry and trial. He was damaged. But tonight he fought back.

Clearly support for Bloomberg is support for his video editors.

15. Right there with you.

 

This past week has been very unsettling for me, but watching Joe tonight settled me down, especially after watching a very angry and agitated Bernie.

I believe this is the beginning of the end for Bernie's candidacy and the re-beginning of Joe's candidacy.


Let Joe be Joe and he'll take it from there.

.

Does that mean he'll reclaim the right-leaning Dems and some of the never Trumpers?

17. I'll answer that question,

 

I will vote for the Democratic nominee, whoever it is, I may not like Bernie as a candidate, but if he ends up as our nominee, I'll hold my nose and pull the lever for him.

Every one here has pretty much said the same thing, they will vote for the Democratic nominee, no matter who it is.

I hope so. I'd personally rather it go to Sanders or Warren, but I think Biden's more likely to get most of it.

Anything to get it away from Bloomberg!

trial, just as they planned. He did a great job at reclaiming his stature now. Bloomberg hit a wall fast.

19. Sadly, very few people watched tonight's debate.

 

Bloomberg will continue to saturate the airwaves with his ads, and Biden will continue to sink in the polls.

At this point, I think that Bloomberg will be our nominee--for better or for worse.
