Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced tonight that he is quitting the Republican party and changing his affiliation to independent.

[...]

Mr. Bloomberg’s announced his decision after he a campaign-style swing through California in which he gave a series of speeches that clearly previewed what aides have long said would be the thematic underpinnings of a Bloomberg presidential campaign, should he decide to run.

He presented himself as an antidote to partisan gridlock in Washington, suggesting that not withstanding his party affiliation, he had brought non-partisan government to New York.

Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is.

Interesting. How can independent ever be elected President though? :unsure:

The question will be, who is pushing him to run for President? Which of the two major candidates will he hurt the most?

I'm guessing that by default, he'd be taking away more Republican votes.

He was a Democrat till 2002 I believe. He only turned Republican to win the nomination and be Rudy's chosen successor. Rudy was a Democrat in his past, too. The Republican party in NYC and NJ is really just a party of Democrats who are outside of the traditional ethnic party machines.

Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is.

Not impossible if you have dissatisfaction with both lamestream parties (as you actually do right now):
  • Republicans, due to W--as many of them turfed out last November
  • Dems due to an "out with the old in with the old" mentality they have

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).
