“The takeaway is Elizabeth Warren hates Michael Bloomberg more than she wants to win. I think she doesn’t want to attack Bernie because she’s scared she’ll get primaries in 2024. Her attacks on Bloomberg probably help her raise money, maybe she genuinely dislikes him, but it wasn’t intended to get her any more votes. It was maybe to stay alive a little bit longer.”
— James Carville, discussing last night’s debate on MSNBC.
