Bloomberg, Sensing an Opening, Revisits a Potential White House Run

..."Mr. Bloomberg, the billionaire former mayor of New York City, has in the past contemplated running for the White House on a third-party ticket, but always concluded he could not win. A confluence of unlikely events in the 2016 election, however, has given new impetus to his presidential aspirations."...

Rich New Yorkers on parade!

Hillary!

Trump!

Bloomberg!

"I understand the anger, but the solution is not to get behind someone who expresses the anger but does not have the necessary solution. I hope people coalesce around somebody who has a positive vision about how to bring Americans together."

Oh, so Plugs, Gov. Moonbeam, or Lurch are viable options, Mr. Pataki?

No wonder you were on the undercard...

...and stayed there.

Joe Biden will be the nominee and if he is elected president,
Valery Jarrett will stay at the white house and continue obama's destruction of America.
While Joe Biden enjoys hours of skinny dipping in front of Female Secret Service Agents.

[Sacajaweau]

Biden will jump in.

[SeeSharp]

So we have this Democrat who is about to win the Republican nomination, and now there is a Republican wants to run as a Democrat?

“Legal” issues?

You would use the law to oppose socialism? But it is upon the law that socialism itself relies. Socialists desire to practice legal plunder, not illegal plunder. Socialists, like all other monopolists, desire to make the law their own weapon. And when once the law is on the side of socialism, how can it be used against socialism? For when plunder is abetted by the law, it does not fear your courts, your gendarmes, and your prisons. Rather, it may call upon them for help.

What law, George?

[Fresh Wind]

Biden will jump in.

See post #3.

25 seconds....So does that mean we have ESP...or am I little slow in my old age?

Hillary must have tons of "killer material" on Biden.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Right.

So much for all the lament about Uniparty government.

[Eccl 10:2]

Pataki is lobbying for the Democratic nomination himself.

He could make a good case if he played it right.

[Vision]

How can anybody still get into the race? Voting starts in a few weeks.

Joe Biden would lose a battle of wits with Putin’s dog.

...... hope people coalesce around somebody who has a positive vision about how to bring Americans together

If he means 'bring Americans together' functionally becoming 'Gulag those pesky bitter clingers' as Democrats' end goals then I'd agree with him because that's the true way Democrats think.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Ouch !

-- So much for all the lament about Uniparty government. --

Confirms the fact, I think.

[bert]

well there’s kerry. He might just Lurch into the campaign. He does after all have the experience

[Cboldt]

-- How can anybody still get into the race? --

Nominees are selected at the nominating conventions. If Hillary drops out, the DEMs aren't going to forego naming a nominee.

And after the conventions, the party can substitute as it desires, should the nominee become unavailable. It can do this up to the moment electoral ballots are transmitted to Congress, which is about a month after the general election.

True, but he did manage to clean Paul Ryan's clock in the last debate.
