both men have Nepoleon complexes, goodnight, look what happened when the little general spoiled things -- I think Bloomberg does very poorly outside the east coast, at least Perot was a Texan and had broad appeal

As big as the Eastcoasters think of themselves, apparently.

In fact, eastcoasters, moreso the northeast, think the whole friggin world revolves around us. Yes I live here, but I do not have that attitude. It is a very snobbish paradigm.

Bloomberg is too smart to light a match to $1 billion. that is real money; he spent $150 million for his two mayoral terms, but there is no way he enters the race.

Remember the prime motivation for Perot was hatred for Bush senior for the perceived slight at his daughter's wedding, there is nothing similar for Bloomberg. Besides, he is way to short.

Neo, he may run, who knows? Wouldn't that be a hoot, the top 3 candidates for the highest office in the land, all from NY. When was the last time that happened? Teddy, Grant, FDR?

$1 billion is only one year's salary for this guy, so it may not be out of the realm of possibility, especially if he has already commited that amount in a lock box to do this.

What a great country we live in!
