20. I Have A Different Take on Bloomberg and His Strategy

He entered the race late because he didn't want to deal with the rough and tumble mess they often became. He skipped SC because he knew he wouldn't fare well in a State with a significant number of POC. He needs to get out asap. He's not helping anyone but Bernie. So do Amy and Steyer unless they want to have a legacy of being spoilers. Amy aspires to a long successful political career. Being tagged as a spoiler will stick and people will remember.

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