Mike Bloomberg's biggest problem as a candidate is he hasn't been a candidate for anything in a long time (2009 to be exact), he is gutless and money can't buy everything but especially time, character and love. Oh yeah, he's unlikable and he is a Control Freak. BTW, he and his advisors just threw the 450 million he spent on ads and a smart "below the radar" strategy before Super Tuesday down the drain after negligently getting him involved in the Las Vegas debate for a caucus he was not even taking part in. Ah, but don't forget, he also abandoned the very reasons and premises that made him a candidate for president in many people's eyes in the first place. Other than that, no problem.
But, wait, a word about the gutlessness and the Mission Fail that occurred as a result here. A lot of people thought that the reason MB was the one who could get rid of Trump was that he was politically incorrect enough on some issues to make independents come back to the Democratic Party. He would relobotomize the Party on race, law and order and education rather than kowtow to the Party's leftwing fringe monitors who insist on strict adherence to their Marxist-Leninist standard of ideological hygiene. Instead, not just in the debate but from the start he has done just that, kowtowed. He has, incredibly for a person who is known as being nothing if not tough and smart, renounced his own Legacy.
If Bloomberg does not want to stoutly defend his policies as Mayor, including "Stop and Frisk", then what's the point of MB except to indulge in the usually Climate Change inspired Will to Power and Doom and Gloom that all the other candidates are already foolishly committed to and hamstrung by? If there's no difference between him and the other "moderates" and even on a certain level, Sanders, then no amount of money is going to make people come out and vote for him.
It is a just and good result, for, if Bloomberg can't defend himself, how is he going to defend America and Americans?
