Don't forget the super delegates.

I think they're both gone. Looks like Bloomberg could give Sanders a hosing come super Tuesday.

Bloomberg would be a disaster for the Dems Bernie supporters are not going to vote for a billionaya! Mayor Pete seems to be decent but from what I'm hearing doesn't have the X Factor to take on Trump.

Amy and Mayor Pete are probably the 2 best candidates for the Democrats

Bernie is a (likeable) wacko

Warren is a fraud and a phony and very unlike able

Joe is toast (Ukraine scandal pretty much finished him off)

Bloomberg would be good for the country but the real progressives won't support him

The Bernie bros need to get a f**king grip then, given the alternative, who's getting progressively more brazen and unhinged by the week.

Absolutely agree but like the Corbynites half of them are deranged and can't see the wood for the trees!

Bernie would grow the economy.
Bloomberg would trigger the crash to wipe out your pension, Whitey

A crash is on the way regardless of who gets in

No one actually knows whether Bernie would be good or bad for the economy.

Remember Nobel Prize winner Paul Krugmans dire warning when Trump got elected......how did that work out?

As Joseph Stiglitz, the Nobel laureate economist, has pointed out, US performance remains poor by the standards of its peers in salient respects, notably life expectancy, employment ratios and inequality

Well you have a huge (no pun intended) obesity and opioid problem over here. The regular person who takes good care of themself is living just as long if not longer, especially if they live in a wealthier state

That is true but life expectancy is falling so the negative seems to be outweighing the positive.

Why? She's ahead of Biden in delegates and came third, ahead of Warren, in New Hampshire. She's one of the better candidates.

Like all stats regarding the United States there are wide disparities between different states

Life expectancy is actually increasing in Massachusetts
