He has got the right idea. However, he is the wrong person.

"If he is spending a billion dollars, would he use it to go after Republicans or Democrats?"

If he runs at all, he will be going after both parties. The nation is so evenly divided between the two parties that simple math would tell anyone that going after one party, and even taking half or three-quarters of their votes would be a losing effort.

If Congress could be used as a barometer of support for the Democratic Party and Republican Party, it has lower approval ratings than President Bush. Both parties have made themselves giant targets, one with taxes, one with borrowing, and both big spenders.

Does Mike Bloomberg's decision to leave the Republican Party mean he's running for President?

No, he's just returning to his "natural state".

Like electricity or water, Mike is taking the path of least resistance to settle at the lowest level....

Although the MSM seems to be pimping Bloomsburg, I’ve not heard a single person mention his name, let alone say that they would support his candidacy.

As bad as things are with the electorate, there is no way this country would ever elect Michael Bloomberg President. Another case of East Coast liberal myopia.

Bloomberg will help the GOP candidate by running. He will not get conservative voters and he will not get many anti American voters ( not left enough), He will get the “undecideds” and those are the voters who will come not from us but from them. The “undecideds” this time will be people who can’t decide how much reality they can stomach. Bloomberg will give them a feeling that “everything can be negotiated” and that will get their votes. By next year the whole question will be WOT/Border protection or socialism. We’ve seen the across the board rejection of socialism so the GOPer will win.

These reporters are on the pipe if they think that a single conservative would ever support him over Fred Thompson, or even Rudy.

Mayor Mussolini will play well in the liberal cities of the Northeast and could draw enough votes from the dingbat rat party to make a few states competitive for the Republican nominee. But what will his platform be?

I promise to ban trans-fat in your french fries.

I promise to tax you for driving your vehicle into liberal hellholes.

I promise to make the trains run on time.

This guy is simply a day late and a scoopful of brains short - the American fascist bundt was disbanded in the early 1940s.

But I do back his candidacy. Now if we can only get Nader in....

The idea of Michael Bloomberg being elected President is just so, so - well, absurd.

“bloomers” has NEVER been a Republican... his effect on the GOP is that of a flea farting! I fart in his general direction!

I think Bloomberg isn’t even a blip on the radar screen of the mind of most voters, in either party, outside the state of NY, and I’d be shocked to learn otherwise.

You really think a leftist like Bloomberg could undercut the GOP? Get real.

He would, MAYBE, be a flaccid version of Ralph Nader all over again. The fact that he’s actually thinking about this reveals the provincial thinking of the NY mind.

I wonder if the term "pitching a loaf" is applicable here.
