LAS VEGAS The Democratic presidential candidates raced on Sunday to make the most of their final weekend day before the Nevada caucuses, selling their messages and tearing into their opponents.
But the rival they focused on most intently was one who isnt even competing in the state.
I got news for Mr. Bloomberg, Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont said at an event in Carson City, Nev., taking aim at the former New York City mayor, Michael R. Bloomberg, within five minutes of opening his remarks. The American people are sick and tired of billionaires buying elections.
In a rarity, former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. echoed his progressive counterpart. Sixty billion dollars can buy you a lot of advertising, but it cant erase your record, he said of Mr. Bloomberg in an interview on NBCs Meet the Press that aired on Sunday.
Senator Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, another moderate, had similar thoughts. Im here getting votes, Ms. Klobuchar said in an interview on Sunday. Its not something where I can just what would be the word transport in a bunch of ads. She called on Mr. Bloomberg to go on the shows that every other candidate goes on, on the Sunday shows and the like.

(2,701 posts)As predicted, the polls show Bernie leading with a cleared progressive lane which he will continue to dominate, unimpeded.
At this rate, he will receive the most delegates and will win the nomination, then Trump will go on to defeat him. It's obvious who our clear and present enemy is..
