I thought that the Super's would favor Biden over Bernie but what if the Super's want Bloomberg and his money? What if Bloomberg tells the Super's that he will put up 50 billion of his 60 billion fortune ( I guess he feels he needs 10 billion to make it in life ) to not only get himself the nomination but to try and keep the House seats and gain seats in the Senate. Could the Super's pass up 50 billion in favor of Biden who will surely melt down when confronted by Trump?
And what will the Bernie bros. do if that happens? Will the Bernie wing of the party take another snub and vote for the BILLIONAIRE the arch enemy of Bernie? Get your popcorn ready!

So let's play this out...If Bernie wins TX, CO, CA, VA and NC which I predict he'll win 4 out of those five he may have an insurmountable lead.
Bernie will not deal. There will be no "next time." The Democrats are screwed.
If somehow Biden rebounds, which I doubt, the Dems are screwed. Biden, like Hillary, cannot stand up to full campaign.
There's a path to the Presidency for MiniMike if Bernie and Biden develop health problems. CV19? If they don't Mike cannot just drop 20 billion dollars on the Democratic Party. Oh, They'll want it but Mike will want to use his own organization. So far, it's failed. If Mike finished 3/4/5 in most of these SuperTuesday states his buyout will look extremely astroturfed.
A broker convention for Warren and Butti?
The scenarios don't look good.
