Gun-grabber Bloomberg would take votes away from democrats, which would make someone like Trump even more likely to win, one would think.
I am concerned he could pick up moderate Republican voters who don't really care about guns one way or the other. I imagine there's more than a few of those out there.
| It's going to be hard for any Democrat to stop Trump's momentum now. The primaries are starting soon and Bloomberg is not on the ballot. His only chance would be a win at the convention. Bloomberg always struck me as a kind of technocrat pol. Does he have any charm or charisma? Do enough people really know him outside of New York? If he were to get the nomination, Bloomberg may do better than Hillary, Bernie or Biden, but it's a bit late. He would have trouble building momentum this late in the game. Besides, to be even thinking of entering the race right now reveals his lack of good judgement. He doesn't understand what the people are looking for. Have you seen Trump's new video on the subject of Jobs? That ad is aimed directly at working class voters -- Demo, GOP, and Independent -- and it's powerful. Trump zeros in on his targets like a heat-seeking missile. Bloomberg would go down in flames. |
I agree. Bloomberg is a comical figure with his food bans - a low energy guy lacking in charisma and out to grab our guns. He is getting started a little too late as Independent. His best chance would be on the Democrat ticket.
