    Bloomsburg is fairly moderate and even a bit right of center on healthcare, crime, and spending. He's essentially the best of all world's candidate with the lowest negatives. A wise endorsement for a celebrity not wishing to cause ire.
    Except he’s unproven. We got lucky with an unproven Trump that he turned out great. Trumps the exception not the rule.

    Making Bloomberg look like a complete piece of tonight was great IMO.

    Yup. Tim Duncan just got Ray Allen’d again

    Warren was fantastic. Even before tonight while she was my distant second I would be good with her if it’s not Bernie 100%

    Those who don’t remember the past are doomed to repeat it.

    there’s a legitimate reason that socialism and communism invoke negative reactions. I’m not a boomer and those reactions are not generational. It’s just an understanding of history...some old history examples and some very recent history examples.
    I'm just curious are you an Xer or millennial? Only reason I ask is that the Xers are the last generation to grow up during the cold war and it's very rare I run into fellow millennials that associate socialism with communism.

    I guess the Laker trolls were right all along; Tim has bad judgment.

    And that will lead to the end of American democracy. Good luck with that.
    Right having universal healthcare is suddenly going to make America a communist country.

    Tim is still my favorite player of all time and I still respect him as a person despite him endorsing Bloomberg. I figure Tim endorsed him because Bloomberg gave money to VI and probably also promised he would give aid money to the VI if he became president. I don't agree with Tim's decision but it doesn't change the way I feel about him as a person.

    Yang was the only decent candidate this year. Too bad he never got a real shot, maybe next time.

    Biden can't last 5 mins without doing something stupid and sucks during debates.

    Bernie is selling fairy tales but he has a blindly devoted fanbase similar to Trump.

    Warren is very book smart but has made mistakes with attacking Bernie and probably too stiff personality wise.

    Bloomberg has the money but also a lot to overcome as we saw last night

    The rest are meh at best.

    Overall I think Trump is probably getting reelected but we'll see what happens.

    Wow, it is head scratching how little people know about politics.

    Exchanging Trump for Bloomberg? - Same Disaster, different Flavor

    Bernie telling Fairy Tales? - Has any of the People who critize Bernie ever been to europe? All those Fairy Tales are real there, so why should the USA be incapable in doing it? Thats what i would understand how people ignore Facts, just to trash Bernie. Mindboggling.

    Well the rest of the candidates dont play a role anymore anyway.

    ... and overall unemployment in the EU is nearly twice that of the US, particularly high among the youth with considerable disillusionment for future prospects. I’m all for healthcare reform but there is no paradise.

    Looks like based on these debates it’s 4 more years of the narcissistic moron.

    USA is a rightwing state (both parties) that has very tiny democratic apparatus. even their media is controlled by its elites. all their media not just some like in other real democracies.

    Bernie would be considered a centrist in most other parts of the civilized world

    remember US govmt bailed out entire US economy in 2008. otherwise Us would be in much worse state than Europe. sadly instead of reforming its society, USA doubled down on its capitalist/stock market farce that is now gonna drive us yo a much deeper hole than 2008 and there is no hope of a bailout this time

    BTW Bernie is modeling towards the Scandinavian socialism which makes the scandinavian countries the most stable in europe

    ... and Sweden, Iceland and Norway have a higher percentage of billionaires per capita than the US. Like Bloomberg said about Bernie, “A multi-millionaire with three houses. Isn’t socialism great.”

    I have no objections to increasing taxes on the wealthy. Just have objections to some of the simplistic tropes put out by some of these candidates and adoringly embraced by their fans.

    Not to even consider Warren’s plan would require a cons utional amendment which ain’t gonna happen. How about a candidate that actually presents a feasible plan popular with the majority of voters.
