Larry Kudlow just insisted on a rumor we've heard several times: Michael Bloomberg is going to be treasury secretary.

PERSONAL COMMENT :

Not sure if Bloomberg would want this job... the task would be like trying to raise the Titanic after it has sunk.

And a Republican to heap blame on when the economy still doesn’t improve.

The lib media will mark this as Obama reaching across the aisle. Even though Bloomberg is about as liberal as you can get — even fiscally.

He’s not really a Republican that was just the affiliation he used because the other party primary was so crowded.

RE: And a Republican to heap blame on when the economy still doesn’t improve.


Bloomberg officially and publicly announced that he has LEFT the GOP over a year ago. He is not an independent.

He has no party loyalties really... he used to be a Democrat.
