Do it. but right now he cant gain any momentum in the first state. and more on mayor michael blook be bloomberg potentially entering the went 20 rate. they stay was partially a trial balloon to gain interest and preserve his options. but bloombergs own extensive polling remains far from convincing reportedly showing big and perhaps insurmountable hurdles, particularly if former vice president joe biden stays in the race. a new morning consult political poll puts bloomberg in sixth place among ...

There in the data in front of him. but datas always changing. you look at donald trump four years ago. the data wasnt there for donald trump. he was not liked in the republican party, he had very high disapproval ratings in the republican party, thats why people were constantly saying there was no way he would ever win. well, michael bloomberg, if he looks at the data as it is right now before he gets into the race and has a chance to shape it, hes not going to jump into the case race race. when...

Over the course of the next couple months. >> well, and this also bloomberg talking about getting into the race, actually breaks the ice for other people who have been considering jumping in. hillary clinton is one thats been talking about it. im not saying sees this going shes going to do it, but there it three or four people whose names have come up in the nost bloomberg even talking about it suddenly makes them think, wait a second, maybe we do need to jump in. i will say one interesting thin...

And for the inevitable, electable candidate, that would be a devastating blow. and his fundraising situation is bad. he could be broke by new years eve effectively broke. so, look, its a tough situation. the fact that mike bloomberg and his people are even toying with the notion about getting in this race, and let me be clear, i dont think mike bloomberg will be or has a very good prospect of being the democratic nominee. but the fact that hes toying with getting in speaks in a loud way to the p...

Elizabeth warren faring the best. but all within, of course, the range, the margin of error. >> right. >> so lets begin, though, with the swing states because those swing states really, i mean, the national polls just arent going to matter. >> right. >> its those swing states that matter the most. the question is if joe biden is in fact strongest in those swing states, and i suspect he is, what good does it do him if hes in faith place in iowa and new hampshire and is out of money by the end of ...
