Actually, Bloomberg ran as a Republican and changed later to Independent. He’s not a Democrat by affiliation.

Very incorrect.

Michael Rubens Bloomberg (born February 14, 1942) is an American businessman, politician and philanthropist. Since 2002, he has been the Mayor of New York City and, with a net worth of $18.1 billion in 2011, he is also the 13th-richest person in the United States.[3] He is the founder and eighty-eight percent owner of Bloomberg L.P., a financial news and information services media company.[4][5][6]

A lifelong Democrat before seeking elective office, Bloomberg switched his registration in 2001 and ran for mayor as a Republican, winning the election that year and a second term in 2005. Bloomberg left the Republican Party over policy and philosophical disagreements with national party leadership in 2007 and ran for his third term in 2009 as an independent candidate on the Republican ballot line.

I forgot that’s right. RINO no doubt about that. Bloomberg is a big government Republican.
