Biden is going to reclaim his support lost to Bloomberg [View all]

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.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

I'm watching Biden's MSNBC interview, and he said Bloomberg is essentially a Republican. TheBlackAdder Feb 2020 #4

Yes it does so let's just all rally around Joe!!! UniteFightBack Feb 2020 #6

I'll rally around the Democratic Primary winner. TheBlackAdder Feb 2020 #7

Sure yeah whoever that is...it's not like you have a vote in it or anything.nt UniteFightBack Feb 2020 #8

The question is, will you vote for the Primary winner, regardless of who they are? TheBlackAdder Feb 2020 #12

Actually that wasn't the question. nt UniteFightBack Feb 2020 #13

It really is. It highlights a past trend I am seeing that seems to model this thread. TheBlackAdder Feb 2020 #14

I'll answer that question, dware Feb 2020 #17

I think you may be right. Cal Carpenter Feb 2020 #9

He did exactly that. It wasn't politics. It was on policy and was aligned with everyone else onstage ancianita Feb 2020 #10

I think Biden and Sanders did the best tonight. Warren was good. rockfordfile Feb 2020 #16

Yes. Biden's dip directly coincided with the impeachment R B Garr Feb 2020 #18

Sadly, very few people watched tonight's debate. Laelth Feb 2020 #19

nearly 20 million people, a new record, and it beat the Grammys and the Golden Globes Celerity Feb 2020 #22

That is good to know. Thank you. n/t Laelth Feb 2020 #23

Not one word about Biden from any pundit so far. Talk about being erased. nt UniteFightBack Feb 2020 #20
