Mike Bloomberg Plays Commander in Chief

He's got his own army, a billion dollars of his own money to drop on the campaign, his own media empire to promote his candidacy, and the delusion that an arrogant, prickly, Wall Street-cheering, union-busting, transfat-banning, gun control-promoting New York Jew could win the White House in 2012.

Run, Mike, run!

Can't wait to see him tell the nation that nobody's gonna know where he spends his weekends and anybody who thinks differently can go fuck themselves.

That'll go over swell in Middle America - as will the gun control and the transfat ban.

Oh, and don't forget putting bike lanes on all the major highways across this great land of ours.

People will love that in Iowa.

Maybe you can make Cathie Black your running mate?

Joel Klein Secretary of Education?

Ray Kelly Defense Secretary in charge of killing all those brown people in Pakistan and Afghanistan?

Janette Sadik-Khan as Secretary of Transporation?

And how about Howard Wolfson as press secretary?

Oh, what laughs we'll have with the whole gang.

Bloomberg 2012.

Go for it.
