and what we found is that if the democrats nominated bernie sanders and the republicans nominated donald trump, that there would be a tremendous opportunity for a candidate who was speaking to the center, like mike bloomberg. that was less so, less the case if the democrats nominated hillary clinton. and -- so it sounds like this decision maybe, in part, is a statement of confidence that hillary clinton's going to emerge as the democratic candidate. >> i think, you know, from what i know about the democratic nominating process, which given my experience in '08, is probably more than i care to remember, there is, you know, every likelihood that hillary clinton is going to be the democratic nominee, and i think it's more than likely that donald trump is the republican nominee. and given that scenario, mike's message was compelling, voters found it compelling, they were attracted to somebody who was a centrist, who was committed to bipartisan government, who had never taken a dime from special interests, who had experience running a large city, who had built a business from scratch. and you

hearing for someone you who might actually find more acceptable than a democrat it's next democrat might nominate i think it's been toxic on both sides, and it's going to get worse, as far as i can see. so, you know, the democrat election hasn't been a walk in the park, either. i'll tell you one thing i'm tired of, and that is when it comes to the supreme court, we should all be venerating that court and venerating the people to. and to put them through-- put even a good candidate through this toxic process during a presidential election, which really hasn't been done before in this way, i think is a tremendous-- would be a tremendous mistake, and republicans just aren't going to do that. neither would democrats if the position was changed and it was the other way around, the democrats wouldn't be going ahead, either. >> ifill: so what happens next, we just go through the motions for a couple months? >> well, i think-- i think people ought to start accepting that the republicans are not going to do this at this time, in this presidential election. but there will come a time when it will have to b

i think you could go forward with a strong candidate and play it out. >> if you get the democratic nomination and you are elected president in november, would you ask president obama to withdraw that nomination in a lame duck so you could name your own nominee? >> yes, i would. i think i'm 100% prepared to support judge garland. i think he's clearly very knowledgeable and can serve ably on the supreme court. but between you and me, i think there are some more progressive judges out there. i have said over and over again that i do have a litmus test for a supreme court justice and that litmus test is that justice must be loud and clear in telling us that he or she will vote to overturn this disastrous citizens united supreme court decision. i am very worried about the future of american democracy and about the ability of billionaires to buy elections. that is my litmus test and that's what i would insist on. >> let me ask you about something that's actually based in your fund raising theory of the case here, one of the things that has been stunning about your campaign is how many small donors
