There has never been a candidate with that much money. But looking at the math it’s tough to see a path because he’s not even on balot till Super Tuesday. Could you compare this on much smaller level to Eddie rispone? Had absolutely no name recognition compared to abramham but just kept spending and spending on tv ads and it worked and he made runoff.

Very fascinating primary

Yes. He can establish himself as the only remaining moderate to save the DNC from Bernie. He can outlast anyone else that is remaining. His goal at this point is to get to a brokered convention and to let the establishment handle it from there.

Not only that, but no one in the media will challenge him.

Where are all the media pundits asking for his tax returns?

Where are all the political analysts on CNN and MSNBC having apoplectic meltdowns about his leaked audio recordings? Why aren't they incessantly calling him a racist?

He has infinite money, will convince misguided democratic voters that he's a pragmatic moderate, and he won't be challenged or scrutinized by the MSM. And come July, the DNC will be welcoming him with open arms at the finish line.

Bloomberg and Bernie are the only two that can win.

Imagine mini mike on stage with big Donnie. Politics aside, no one is gonna vote for that in the general. There has only been one president in the past 60 years that wasn’t basically 6 foot or taller. Jimmy Carter.

Never underestimate the power of money. History has many campaigns that
have been disrupted, challenged, lost, won, ruined and made by $.

He will need to win CA by 20-30 PTS to have a real shot. He just dumped a $90 million ad buy. I’ll give it to the guy he is spending some coin. He is paying some staffers double what other candidates can pay. He is building a ground game. Time will tell.

Short Jewish 1%er from NYC has no shot at brining blacks/Muslims/socialists to the polls. Romney will vote for him though.

He is the most dangerous opponent for trump. The DNC loves money. He had lots of it.

He will spend tons. He can't take it with him. He will support other campaigns to split the vote to get to a brokered convention.

He will win a brokered convention because he will basically buy it.

He is seen as the least crazy of the Dems who actually had a functioning brain and a pulse. He will not say crazy things to get wins in the primaries because he doesn't need that.

Yes he has an excellent shot.
