I'm reminded of a conservative telling me a story about what supposedly doomed Michael Dukakis when he ran. What they told me was that he was asked if he'd stick by his principles if his wife was murdered, or something along those lines. Apparently him sticking to his beliefs and not immaturely raging was somehow a negative factor. This conservative friend could not understand how his story gave me the opposite opinion he intended.

If only the center could rise vs. ideologues. I don't want a president for their "conviction" to whatever flavor polarized people are addicted to that day.

I don't know much about Bloomberg. I just know the more I hear the Democratic candidates talk that most of them could never hope to win a general election. Sometimes they sound loony even to me, and I'm definitely left of center. I fear if Trump-style authoritarians win much longer, freedom is over in this country.
