This twerp is running, IMHO.
He should form the Putz party.
Bloomy is so far left that in a one and one matchup I’d probably vote for the Crusty Pantsuit first.
We live in interesting times.
Run, Bloomingidiot!
Oh, and I suggest you make gun confiscation central to your platform. Especially in light of events in Colorado. Can’t have the peons armed, ya know. That will go over in the heartland!
I want both Algore and Bloomberg to run. It would be the funniest election ever, IMO.
Throw in Nader and you get a trifecta.
Ralph Nader gets a thank you note from President Bush every January 20th for taking votes from Algore.
If that's the case, then he won't do it. Bloomberg is a lifelong Democrat.
Oh absolute BS... an “Independent” run will pull votes from Republicans, just like it did when Clinton ran against Bush...
Good grief I hope people don’t listen to him saying this and believe it.
Ron Paul is most LIKELY going to run as an Independent because he thinks he has a chance in hell of becoming President cuz he’ll pull the leftist-conspiracy-kook vote and the far-right-wingnut-cases who want to see a complete and utter breakdown of society, as well as the Libertarians/Anarchist mix that want to have NO government at ALL.
Good grief.
That’s why the Dems are sending money to him and helping set up Botnets.
Who knows? If Nader would jump in for his usual presidential run, perhaps a 5th party conservative candidate could win instead of one of 4 "Progressives."
Reagan had John Anderson (R-Liberal) as a third party candidate when he ran in 1980. Not a problem for Maximus. A Bloomberg third-party candidacy would hurt the Democrats more than the Republicans because he would get all the “hold your nose and vote for Hillary” votes. Instead of the Republican candidate losing states with a 52-48 split, he’d win with a 48-46-6 split.
If that's the case, then he will do it. Bloomberg is a lifelong egotist. Fixed it. No practical lefty pushes gun grabbin' anymore, just moonbats with oversized egos.
What koolaid are you drinking?
Bloomberg will do exactly what Hillary tells him to do.
“INDEPENDENT RUN WOULD DAMAGE THE DEMS WORSE (Bloomberg)”
Wow gee no foolin’?
Puleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze it would be a gift from God, but it will never happen. He’s way too smart to do it.
A while back when Osama was her in NYC the jerks in the ratmedia were speculating about an Osama/bloomberg ticket. That would be as big an ass kicking as goldwater took.

Have you read the link in comment# 1? There’s no other reasonable explanation than Bloomy is going third party. I’m all ears for an alternative explanation.
Triangulation.
Hillary wants to put the Republicans on the spot with the “sucker moms” yet remain detached enough not to scare off lukewarm Democrat hunters and sportsmen who make up some of the mindless “middle”.
She wants to position somebody to her far left, thereby making herself look “reasonable”. It’s a tried and true tactic, and it’s really not hard (for us political junkies, anyway) to figure out. Bloomberg may get “into the race” but no way will he still be in it when election day finally rolls around. Expect him to throw his support to Hillary.
FRegards,

Nice try, but I'm not biting. Bloomy has also been triangulating. Search Unity08 and Bloomberg.
Okay. Let’s hear your theory.
Why would somebody who has zero chance of ever winning a single electoral vote spend millions of his own dollars to jump into the Presidential race as a third-party candidate? Because he wants to raise awareness of gun control issues? Please.....
