Scary Bloomberg
The Draft Bloomberg people are really running with my account of the Al Smith Memorial Dinner last night.
From runmikebloomberg.com, an explanation of why Hillary Clinton and Rudy Giuliani chose not to attend:
"If they went last night, the story this morning would be that Mayor Michael Bloomberg got a larger ovation then the two of them…combined.

If Hillary or Rudy went last night the only thing people would be talking about today (besides Joe Torre) is the fact that when these three people are side by side, in the same room, Mike Bloomberg is the most popular. Bloomberg scares them so much they are afraid to be in the same room with him for fear that he would out shine them! If Hillary and Rudy went to the dinner there would be a story in every newspaper today saying Michael Bloomberg got the bigger reception and would muse about a Bloomberg Presidential run."
Fact is they are afraid of any independent. Rudy acknowledged as much when asked in the debate by Chris Matthews about a third party. Stating that it has already been tried and the two party system serves us well now of course only refers to how well it serves the elite ruling class.
Time for the chickens of both parties to invite a true independent like and Daniel Imperato for instance to debate. He might just have something to say that the American voters want to hear - which is exactly what the Big Two fear.
What about the rest of us?
The Draft Michael Bloomberg movement has recently launched a new blog and discussion forum. For the latest and greatest about the growing grassroots effort, check us out.
