1. Maybe a week and a half late with that one.

But maybe he figured more people would notice that he wanted someone, maybe even himself, to primary Pres Obama in 2012 if he ran it before SC.

3. I'd say so.

4. Psst! Somebody tell Bernie that President Obama...

was a Moderate and is part of the establishment that he hates so much.

7. Does he really think

people are going to buy that he is a better friend to Obama than Biden. He has already alienated dems because of his attacks against them. Move on.

8. Had he run with that kind of ad throughout the early primaries,

my guess is his numbers would be much higher than they are.

Instead, he ran on a platform of blaming our allies as well as our enemies (which is a bit ironic as his surrogates championed the idea that he was the lone saint sitting atop the hill asking for unity).

9. Why do people think that putting themselves in an ad with Obama automatically gets the black vote?

Black voters are not dumb. You actually need that relationship to benefit from the association. We know if you were around and supportive during his years. Obama's VP is running for President. The only thing that stoking nostalgia for the Obama presidency does is boost Biden.

The people running advertisements like this in the South, are struggling for viability in those states.

Really take some time and ask black voters what they think of this ish. My 70+ yr old grandmother saw right through Bloomberg's ads.
