Former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg was second only to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders in a new poll released Tuesday.
For Bloomberg, the new poll sees the candidate meet qualification requirements for a candidate to have won at least one delegate in the first two contests, have four national polls giving them 10 percent or more of support or have two state polls from either Nevada or South Carolina giving the candidate 12 percent of more of support.
"I don't think you should be able to hide behind airwaves and huge ad buys. He has to come on these shows," she said."And I also am an advocate for him coming on the debate stage. I know I'm not going to be able to beat him on the airwaves, but I can beat him on the debate stage, because I believe my argument for my candidacy is so much stronger."
"$60 billion can buy you a lot of advertising, but it can't erase your record," former Vice President Joe Biden said in an interview on NBC's"There's a lot to talk about with Michael Bloomberg," he said.""You all are going to start focusing on him like you have on me, which I'm not complaining, like you have on me the last six months. You're going to focus on him.
In addition to facing scrutiny over his track record, Bloomberg has also faced backlash over the Democratic National Committee's decision to relax its debate criteria to no longer require candidates to meet donor requirements in order to participate.
