Yeah, those ads are pretty dishonest and disgraceful.  Hopefully Biden calls him out on it.

Obama ought to call him on it TBH.

Bloomberg is knowingly and deliberately trying to create the impression in voter's minds that Obama has endorsed him, which is false.

The more you talk about Bloomberg as though he were a serious contender for the nomination, the more you sow division among the Democratic Party and hurt Bernie's chances of defeating Trump.

Bloomberg handily loses a head to head matchup against Bernie by 15 points. Democratic primary voters have rejected Bloomberg and chosen Bernie as the nominee, now it is time to rally the party behind the nominee and focus on defeating Trump.

This is really going to hurt Bloomberg with the nursing home vote, which is a huge part of Klobuchar's support in Florida.

In order for a "moderate" candidate to win, they have to consolidate the nursing home vote and win 100% of it, and Bloomberg just shot his chances of doing so into pieces.

Golf buddies. Aren't they cute together? They make a great couple.

If any of them want to be the nominee, they should be attacking Sanders, not each other. If they can't stop the Sanders train, nothing else matters.

They are under the mistaken impression that there is a "moderate lane" and that if they can just knock out the other moderate candidates, then they will consolidate the "non-Bernie" vote and win. It makes sense if you believe that is true. Unfortunately for them, polling shows clearly that it is not true.

1) That tweet doesn’t say anything about him actually releasing anybody from an NDA but even IF it did:
2) Now do the other 60+ who have NDAs.

Yep. This is a really politically stupid response by Bloomberg also, because it doesn't make the story go away, it just brings more attention to it (this lack of political astuteness simply shows why he would not make a good candidate). And then the question is very much about all the other NDAs even if 3 actually get released.

‘I Like This Candidate Now And Will Vote For Him,’ Says Area Man After Having To Watch 12th Bloomberg Ad In Single Day

LEWISTON, ME—Announcing his newfound support for the former New York mayor, local Democratic voter Lucas Butterfield calmly stated, “I like this candidate now and will vote for him,” after seeing a Mike Bloomberg ad for the 12th time in a single day, sources confirmed Thursday. “The ninth ad didn’t really convince me, and I was on the fence for the 10th and 11th, but once I had seen my 12th commercial since waking up this morning, I suddenly realized Mike is the candidate for me,” said Butterfield, who explained that he had initially opposed the former Republican’s candidacy, but after the day’s encounter with a dozen print, TV, radio, billboard, and autoplaying digital ads, it now seemed obvious to him that Bloomberg was “the only man for the job.” “I like Mike. Mike is my candidate of choice. I will go to the polls and cast my ballot for Mike, and I will tell all my friends to vote for Mike too. I support Mike Bloomberg for president in 2020. Only Mike can get it done.” At press time, sources confirmed the man was speaking Bloomberg’s name over and over again with increasing urgency while he repeatedly walked into a wall.
