Rogan saying he has turned down pretty much everyone for his podcast,,,he had Tulsi, Yang and Bernie on who he likes. I actually think Bernie could do worse with his time then go back on...Rogan likes him and last podcast did immense numbers.

Imagine Joe Biden chatting to Joe for 3 hours....:mellow:

Haha ya it didn't help Pete - it helped Sanders as I expected.

Bloomberg, on the other hand, still has a path. If Biden tanks in the early primaries, establishment may flock towards Bloomberg on Super Tuesday. Bloomberg, being a finance man, knows that strategy and putting all money in Super Tuesday states.

Genius he is not by any stretch. But, $100mn isn't much for him either - it's like buying an out-of-the-money option with a tiny fraction of your money - great if it pays off, never mind if it doesn't. He became New York mayor with a similar strategy (that was also like buying an out-of-the-money option - had almost no chance of winning). He ran a campaign right-wing style on security issues etc. and then boom, 9/11..That's what happens with deep out-of-the-money options. You can only win if something out of the ordinary happens.

I am really interested to see if he will really spend money for campaign if someone else gets the Dem nomination, as he promised. That will be really interesting specially if Bernie wants. Good if Bloomberg keeps his promise.

Nah, even if you think that Joe Biden knows more about foreign policy (because uh, reasons), there's literally nothing to suggest he commands any kind of fluency on any subject.

Yes there is definitely no reason to think the Vice President of the United States would not have been kept informed about things happening around the world. Nailed it.
