In reply to the discussion: Bloomberg Campaign Claims It Has 'Very Damaging' Info On Sanders [View all]SayItLoud
(1,702 posts)80. Dirty damage to Bernie or any candidate will play right into the
hands of tRUMP. Divide us and he wins.
If Bloomberg defeats Sanders due to op research and not on positions I'm feeling that few or NONE of Bernie followers will support Bloomberg if he's the nominee and probably will stay at home and not support any other nominee. They felt burned in 16. Just sayin...so much for #votebluenomatterwho in that case.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

OP
My fear is that is if Bloomberg plays this attack game, he will tear apart our party even more.

+1. Sanders has never been really vetted. Everyone has been walking on eggshells around him

Whatever Bloomberg's op team has it has nothing to do with Bernie's policies

How long would you expect him to put up with attacks from the other candidates before he hits back?

Wow, threatening a smear campaign in the primary. Is he going to be bringing up Hunter Biden next?

What truth? Smear campaigns aren't about "truth", they're about innuendo and association.

As someone who thinks highly of Sanders, I would like to know if there is any "there" there.

There are times I think our candidates are campaigning with a knife and fork.

You can see from DU, Bloomberg doesn't stand a chance of getting Sanders' base, so why not

Not really; heck, I was a fan of his for years, but I didn't know about the stuff with his son

We must be prepared for the possibility that the Trump DOJ has (Russian) dirt on Dem candidates

I've seen too many Blockbuster Bombshells that were a Fizzle and Belch when they were released.
