    Of course the South is hardly a Democracy.

    Well she is already wearing the official color of the USSR flag. But she is a nice looking girl and looks like a human being not a communist.

    Impossible Texas, unlikely Florida.

    As I understand it, a lot of Floridians are from New York, and bloomberg was not the most popular.

    Not a chance.

    Steyer is a Billionaire Vanity Candidate (on an Ego Trip).

    Bloomberg (former NYC Mayor) has a 12-year record as a Serious Politician.

    One "emerging narrative" (as has been mentioned) is that the Big Money Dem Donors don't have enough faith in Liz (to take out Trump).

    So, if Biden falters, Bloomberg emerges as a "Stop Liz" candidate.

    Bottom line is that the Democrats lost Dixiestan for 100 years the day LBJ signed the Civil rights acts.

    Both Steyer and Bloomberg have FU money. They could self fund just to screw over the DNC.

    I could even see them as running mates.

    True as far as Texas. No way it goes Blue in 2020.

    FL is still (basically) a Tossup (but, with the Edge to Trump. probably a Slight Fave vs The Field).

    Steyer has ZERO Chance of getting the Nom. or being on the ticket.

    In the Slight Chance Bloomberg were to get the Nom., he would need a running mate like Harris or Klobuchar, Etc.

    Exactly.

    The day that "Dixiecrat" Strom Thurmond SWITCHED Parties to the GOP.

    After which, the GOP Party became the "Big Tent" (that was a Happy Place for Southern Racist Politicians).

    I just know he wasn't popular in NY, and many have moved to Florida, sick of NY's taxes, regulations, etc.

    Im sure they also appreciate the federal tax cuts and booming stock market (broke records again today) that Trump brings.

    Ya' know, I sometimes wonder if Democrats have a learning disability with all the insane crap they come up with. Somebody needs to smack their heads with a two by four to remind them, "Hey Obama won big! 2018 was a big win! This week was a big win! Didja' learning from that? Didja' Didja' Dijda'?

    If they don't get on the ticket, they can go 3rd party just to screw over the DNC.

    And they have the means (money) to do that.

    Consider a relatively well off aging boomer who wants to keep what he earned, and isn't buying all of the SJW crap the dems are pushing.

    They do not appear to be learning.

    There are others reasons that people from NY Metro area flock to Florida besides taxes. Many are perennial Snow Birds.

    Still, Trump only received 49.0% of the FL Vote in 2016.

    Underperforming Romney's 49.1% in 2012.

    FL is going to be a Tossup in 2020.
    (But, of course, Trump will have the advantage of Incumbency).

    Yes thats true but that's always been the case.

    I think retiring boomers might want to keep a little more of what they earned.
