"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.

Yes, and I should have said that. But exactly how he pitches it is a tactical decision that he will make based on how many votes he can peel away.

Remember, he may not be running to win. He may be running to stroke his own ego and push the issues he wants to push. Would he spend a billion dollars on a vanity run? Why not? It’s his money.
