NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg is taking a look at the 2016 presidential landscape, and putting the pieces in place for a possible presidential run, sources close to Bloomberg said.

I read somewhere that he only runs if Burney gets the D nomination. Bloomie is too tight with the Clintons to torpedo them.
Oh please, oh please......
As long as he spends his personal money and loses, that is fine with me. I wish this NY jack-ss would crawl back into whatever sewer he crawled out of.
Hmm, your point makes sense. Haven’t considered that.
Is this hatred for Trump or is it sensing weakness from the democRATS?
I don’t see how this Napoleon wannbe can get any traction unless Killery is indicted and Bernie has a stroke
Only 1? I wish he’d use it ALL up and leave the rest of us alone. Then his minions in the mommunist brigade might have to go back to real jobs rather than trying to disarm us. Uh, I mean fight for gun safety. Yeah, that’s it.
Good, let he and Hillary split the Amnesty loving crowd vote.
Aw man...give it to the wounded warriors.
That would be awesome. Spend your money! Faster! Faster!
So this strategy is to ‘muddy the waters’?
I'll believe it when I see it. The fact that this supposed decision is going to be in early March, after Super Tuesday, makes me believe he's the Democrats' fallback option, should their base nominate loon Bernie Sanders.
He will if Hillary goes to jail. Which is a long shot.
I would love for him to waste a billion of his own money. would love it.
Money didn’t help Jebbie.
It could be a cry from the media for a billion dollars LOL!
Hillary’s indictment change that?
I hope Bloomberg runs! We need Ralph Nader and the green party loons to run as well. They got George W. elected.
I swear Bernie is stroking out every time he answers a debate question.
he wouldn’t be that foolish, he likes his lifestyle too much I’m sure.
It does make a wonderful mental image to think Bloomberg blowing his cash like that.
Consider this......
What happens if no presidential candidate gets 270 Electoral votes?
If no candidate receives a majority of Electoral votes, the House of Representatives elects the President from the 3 Presidential candidates who received the most Electoral votes. Each state delegation has one vote. The Senate would elect the Vice President from the 2 Vice Presidential candidates with the most Electoral votes. Each Senator would cast one vote for Vice President. If the House of Representatives fails to elect a President by Inauguration Day, the Vice-President Elect serves as acting President until the deadlock is resolved in the House.
Americans will reject someone who is openly trying to purchase the Presidency.
That is what people do not want.
Also, he is trying to keep Trump from winning New York in the general election
Hope New Yorkers choose Trump over someone who is now on record for saying he wants the Presidency so much, he is willing to attempt to buy the office with money.
That will not sit well with hard working Amercicans.
Bloomberg must be so upset that another New Yorker is so well loved by millions of Americans, from all backgrounds and from all states.
