A Roger Simon reply to the Bremmer tweet puts this into perspective:

You got that right, Roger.My new favorite political analyst, the very astute 102 year old Richard M. Nixon, gives us the last word on the Bloomberg trial balloon:

Me too, Mr. President.Me too.
And I think he'll be quite successful if he runs.
Isn't the country desperately longing for a New York billionaire who wants to take away their guns, Big Gulps and styrofoam?
