Thanks for the coverage and analysis, I didn't catch the debate but have read a few bits about it. In one clip, it appeared that Bloomberg accidentally said he "bought..." democrats in congress. I thought I miss heard what he said as I wasn't really paying attention but then I read other comments saying the same thing. Not really surprising except for the fact that he blurted it out on live TV. He took such a beating in the last debate I was wondering why he even showed-up but then I remembered - he's not there to win. He's just there to attack Bernie for the ruling class and bankster friends.

Yes, you're spot on; he really DID almost let that slip out of his mouth. And then he made a really bad "joke" about how he got beat up last time around. What we have here is "money in politics" against the one guy who wants money out of politics, one dollar, one vote against one person, one vote. This election could well be called a national referendum on money in politics ;-)

Agreed, money has completely corrupted the election process and government lobbying is legalized bribery. Getting money out of elections won't solve everything but it certainly HAS to happen if improvements are to be made. Every presidential election cycle the amount spent on campaigns is ludicrous waste of resources.
