Nightmare Chaos: Democrats Plot/Expect a Brokered ConventionThe Democrat convention rules require a candidate to get an outright majority of all delgates' votes on the first ballot, or else it goes to a second ballot, and becomes a so-called "brokered convention." And on the second ballot, delegates are permitted to vote for candidates other than those they're pledged to. And also -- the Establishment "SuperDelegates," the party hacks and Hillary dependents, get to vote on the second ballot and any subsequent ballots. Mike Bloomberg has realized he can't wain the race, at least not by regular delegates. The "Bloomberg Fever" he'd been hoping for failed to infect America. So instead he's plotting to stay in the race and come in second place (or, who knows, third or fourth), and try to deny Sanders his first ballot majority. And then convince the SuperDelegates and delegates for other alleged "moderates" to vote for him. By the way, yeah, I think that Bloomberg's "arguments" will consist of money changing hands. Oh wait, that's silly; Democrats are about fairness , not money.
You had me at "devolve into chaos." Mike Bloomberg is privately lobbying Democratic Party officials and donors allied with his moderate opponents to flip their allegiance to him -- and block Bernie Sanders -- in the event of a brokered national convention. The Hill reports that Democrats once thought the idea of a brokered convention was too implausible to entertain, but now think it's likely. They also think it's "the biggest nightmare." You had me at "devolve into chaos" and "the biggest nightmare." One Democrat who worked on two campaigns for former President Obama called a brokered convention "the biggest nightmare Democrats can imagine." Who's dropping out if the prospect of a brokered convention, where anyone can make a case why they should be the nominee, can win? The very notion of a potential brokered convention almost guarantees that enough candidates will stay in that will in turn guarantee a brokered convention. Meanwhile, the creepy homosexual geek Pete Buttigiege is now calling on Bloomberg to drop out of the race. Pete Buttigieg's campaign called on Michael Bloomberg to drop out of the Democratic presidential race following his rough debate performance, flipping the Bloomberg campaign's argument about the threat of Bernie Sanders back onto Bloomberg. This is of course in response to Bloomberg's call for others to drop out.
Everything about Buttigieg is annoying. He's a repellent creep of scarcely average intelligence who is convinced that everything he does is super-clever and ultra-cute. Meanwhile, The Bulwark is in panic mode that Pierre Omidyar will make them endorse Sanders if he's the nominee if they want to be able to afford groceries.
