    Yes, as an independent. That would spell victory for the Republican. Well, unless the repubs snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

    Damn, I hope he spends his entire fortune on the campaign. Please, Mikey, DO IT!

    He's setting his sights too small. He should run for President of the World and start his campaign off with rallies in Syria, Iraq, and Afganistan.

    I'd support him....

    I wonder how this will play out. Surely Hillary has the dem females vote for the most part, and many of the males, but Bloomberg may appear less tainted with scandal and treason and thusly sway dem voters away from Hillary. Regardless, if he and Sanders run, they split Hillarys voting bloc.

    Too late.

    Hitlery is having a problem finding anyone outside of her family to support her. She can't even fill up a small auditorium when she gives a speech.

    He's another "I'm smarter than you" arrogant douche-bag. I sure hope he does blow his money down a rat hole. Would be nice to hear he's living in a cardboard box about 2 years from now.

    Bloomberg could pull it off. There are enough republicans who will only vote for "the perfect candidate" which we know doesn't currently exist in human form. There are democrats who dislike hillary and can't stand Sanders either, so they would vote for the democrat in republican clothing running as an independent

    I believe Bloomberg has enough money that a full fledged presidential campaign would be pocket change from two pockets.

    There's no way Bloomturd could pull off a 3rd party run. The only one who might stand a chance of that would be Trump but it looks like he's got the Repub nomination all sewed up (unless Cruz continues to rise).

    Bloomturd is just pissing in the wind.

    Thumbs up

    I really do hope he does it. The only people who would vote for him are liberals, and it would pretty much guarantee a Donald Trump victory. It would be a glorious day.
