Top Republicans yesterday were appalled at Mayor Bloomberg's decision to create an enemies list of fellow Republicans - especially when he's the host of next summer's GOP convention in New York.

Bloomberg's blacklist, supplied by his aides, says New Yorkers shouldn't donate campaign cash to powerful House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (Texas) and Reps. Tom Tancredo (Colo.), Mark Kennedy (Minn.) and Charlie Norwood (Ga.).

"Someone that may not have been your friend last year you may need next week," said Rep. Charles Rangel (D-Manhattan).

Methinks NYC would've been better off if Rep. Rangel pulled the switch-and-run.

There's something very, very uncomfortable about "enemy lists" for political enemies.

He should switch back and become a Democrat. That's always who he was before he switched to run in the GOP primary.

Bloomberg has no "fellow" Republicans. He is not one to begin with.

Lifelong Democrat Bloomberg bought the GOP nomination for mayor of NYC with his persoanl fortune worth billions. In no uncertain terms, he is not and never will be a Republican.

Bloomy is a paradigm Dumbocrat - a rank, self-serving opportunist who does only what's in his best interests.

Sound familiar?........... I thought so.......Perfect description of the conniving Clintons, eh?

Particularly when a pol considers his "enemies" those within the party whose banner he carries and who elected him.

I'm surprised he didn't put Jesse Helms on the list though Jesse is gone from the Senate and sadly missed.

Yes, Charles, but the GOP let ITSELF BE BOUGHT, even a little gratefully and elated that Bloomberg wanted their party line.

I'm surprised the RINO didn't gripe about the VRWC.

What did my rep. Mark Kennedy do? I sometimes ripped him for being to moderate.

To an opportunistic visceral, knee-jerk liberal pol like Bloomy, even a moderate is a threat.

Why not ask Mark Kennedy yourself about being on the blacklist? Could be interesting. And report back. OK?
