#18  "NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg leaves GOP"

Mr. Nanny was never in the GOP - he just lied to get into power.

Like lots of Dems....

#17  Bloomborg, may you get the reception you deserve wherever you go. If you can stomach that, you might be a worthwhile candidate - for dogcatcher in Newark. You and your money can't buy the presidency, like you bought the mayoralty of New York. You are useless, uneducated, and a bore to the rest of the nation. I hope you go bankrupt, swine.

#16  This guy is more fickle about his party affiliation than a teenage girl is about her boyfriends. He has always been a dhimmi in spirit and deed.

#14   "He switched parties so he could ride Guiliani's coattails to the mayorship since a Dem had no chance in 2001"

My understanding was that he switched cause the Dems wouldnt nominate him.

I dont think hes qualified for Prez. Might be an interesting candidate for Gov or Senate though.

#12  Yeah, this is a root canal for the donks. No normal republican will ever vote for this jerk unless he is running against a donk as in his runs for NYC mayor.

#11  Bloomberg was a Democrat. He switched parties so he could ride Guiliani's coattails to the mayorship since a Dem had no chance in 2001. Must be deluded to run for prez as an independent, unless his intention is sabotage a candidate. Since I can't see Republicans voting for him, he must really dislike Hillary.

#10  I've seen polls in which Nurse Bloomberg draws enough centrist votes to swing several states to the 'Rat. Of course, it's 2007, not 2008, so as he's better known, I expect that will drop.

#9  Hes unknown outside of the NY media hype. He'll only take northeast votes from Her Thighness.

#8  I saw a headline somewhere else (sorry, I was doing research!) this morning that suggested it was part of his presidential plan to run as a third-party candidate.

Hey! Maybe he and Al Bore will team up?

#6  It fits. Bloomberg News (founded by the mayor) doesn't have much in the way of reporters. It uses programs searching corporate reports and press releases to generate its stories with AI. So, one could rightfully say it is fluff too.

#5  I thought he was a Democrat all along. Only now did the MSM reveal the truth!

#4  Few more like this and the R's may be back in business. Can you hear me now John McCain?
