Mayor Mike is several steps closer to officially becoming the Democrat Party's candidate for POTUS. Rich old white man money is going to quite literally going to flood the airwaves. Mayor Mike has already slid into the Democrat candidate's debate stage. Mayor Mike is going to win the Democrats brokered convention.

Strange how an app created by Hillary campaign staff fails right as Bernie is set to win and take the momentum.
Instead, mayor Pete who is no threat to actually win the nomination is pushed to the top so far. All this helps Bloomberg and hurts Bernie. But just a coincidence, no?

Don’t worry, Pete is in first place for delegate assignment with 62 percent of the results in.
despite Bernie winning the popular vote in both rounds. Which is odd. As well as how did Mayor Pete know to claim victory last night when there were no results yet?

I think Bloomberg is a tad bit jealous of Trump for the fact that Trump is not as rich as he is but Trump became president. It's true that if you spend enough money, you can buy just about anything.

I definitely agree with that.

Iowa is next door to Indiana. Both are mainly farm/ranch states. Of course Pete had a leg up over all the coasties.
Bloomberg has a record of public service, but he was certainly born with a silver spoon. He's also been a Republican and Independent, so his political slant is flexible. Not sure if that is good or bad.

So apparently these people could not even write an app to screw Sanders... but you all have to trust them to run the infinitely more complex health system of a huge country. Makes complete sense!

Well, it's his money. Said the same thing about Trump in 2016

Not sure how much his father a dairy company bookkeeper makes, but unless he had rich immigrant grandparents, he certainly didn't have to study to be an electrical engineer
