He’s going to be the Ross Perot of 2008, giving us a Clinton Presidency.

An independent Bloomberg would have to garner more dem than Republican votes, no?

Probably. The guy sitting in for Rush today (Mark?) speculated that Bloomberg would announce in independent run for the White House by this time next year.

Doubtful. He'd siphon more votes from Hillary than from the Republican candidate.

One step he needed to do to make his 2008 presidential bid.

He never was a Republican, neither is Rudy; they both ran as Republicans because they needed a party structure to get on the ballot. Both had personalities too large for certain people (Chuckie S.) in the Dem party.

Let him run for President how is he gonna get on state ballots as an independent? Perot had grass roots support, this guy has none.
