Former Mayor Michael Bloomberg is seriously considering a third-party run for the presidency and has alerted advisers to draw up a plan for success, according to a report.
Bloomberg, 73, told friends he is prepared to spend as much as $1 billion to win the White House and set a deadline of early March for making a decision, the New York Times reported Saturday.

Good. Suck more lib votes away from the Dems.
Foolish of him. He is too late and not well-known and will only split the Democrats. What makes him think he can win?
Has anybody sent this script to the House Of Cards producers?
They absolutely could not have written a series like the real one we have shaping up now.
A blowhard reality show narcissist, a near convicted felon and a egotistical hate all uber-billionaire candidates on a three way election!!!
Hillary. Bernie. Gore. . Biden. Fakeahontas. Pelosi. Kerry. Obama. Wright. Sharp lton. Moore. Boxer. Truly the inmates have taken over the insane asylum.
My thought too. More division of liberal votes.
[[They will push the people too far, and then the people will push back.]]
Meh- they’ve pushed NY’ers too far for a very long time now- the people there simply comply for the most part with only minor resistances around the state
[[Trump wins New York if Bloomy runs.]]
Hell- Cruz wins NY if bloomy runs
please do.... cause its sucking votes from clintoon....
and bloomberg is just another billionaire limo liberal with a huge ego.... who knows it all....another nazi jew.... amazing georgi schwartz (aka soros).... bloomberg....
same mentality....
IF I RAN THE WORLD IT WOULD BE A BETTER PLACE......FOR ME
not so much for you ......
The RINO class is not getting the attention it demands, nor are they calling the shots as they see fit. They desperately want to interfere with Trump, Cruz, and the idea that the voters of this country, not the pols, will decide the next R nominee, who will be the next President.
“I seriously doubt the clown runs. He’s just trying to bring attention to himself.”
That is exactly what was said about Trump when he began talking about running for president.
So the general could be ...
Two registered independents against Trump?
MB has almost zero national appeal.
I think he is concerned that if Hillary doesn’t get the nod there will be no gun grabber in the race, and he can’t stomach that thought.
Bloomy...Please don’t take a Slurpee to Ft. Marcy Park.
Well, look. He is a rich businessman, has his own money so won’t have to accept donations. He won’t be beholden to the wall street types and big bankers who will tell him what they want in return for their support. He will tell it like it is and not care who doesn’t like it. All his liberal positions were keeping st about him trying to make his business successful so you can’t hold it against. He has really been a conservation at heart the while time. And he is famous. And he is a successful business man. Who is rich.
Go Bloomer!
He left the GOP in 2007.
He is now an I.
My well wishes also - he sure won't pull any from the Trump/Cruz camp. :-)
I agree. He appears too much of a nerd. There was a photo of him that I mistook for Robert Durst. Romney proved that just being superrich does not guarantee victory.

I AM the younger generation. I’m just a nostalgia freak...ahem.
That could get interesting. He’s essentially a Democrat.
