What Went Down On Super Tuesday

But I think the difference, Kaleigh, is that Steyer didn’t have a political track record or name recognition. Look, I am not saying another candidate would definitely have succeeded in Bloomberg’s place, but I agree with Micah that Bloomberg is not a great candidate, and it’s interesting to think about what would have happened if someone more palatable to Democratic voters had been able to blanket the airwaves and open dozens of field offices instead.

We had another candidate with Bloomberg’s financial resources who didn’t have Bloomberg’s shortcomings … but Steyer was even less successful. (To be fair, he had his own set of shortcomings.)
