Yes, I know the golden rule of friendship. Never date your friend’s ex. And right up there with it, never discuss politics, unless you are prepared for a fight.
I am thinking for all indications the Democrats are going to have to deal with Bernie Sanders as the nominee. But here is what you want to watch out for, The News Media. I have notices whichever candidate the new media, unbiasedly (?) (LOL) starts to throw their support behind is unusually the candidate who takes the nomination.
But don’t believe the polls. In 2016 Hillary Clinton was a shoe-in. The polls all showed she would become the first woman president. Even on the day of the election, polls still showed Hillary would ride the wave to the White House. And just like the unsinkable Titanic, an iceberg named Donald Trump proved everyone wrong.
Sanders may be the guy, it’s a little too early to tell, but by Super Tuesday, the field should narrow and a clear front runner established.

I have chuckled when there are comments about how poorly the media is treating Bloomberg. But they don't care that the press has been worse towards our president. Go figure.

Tis true. They hate Trump because he doesn't play by the rules, and doesn't care for the media.
