Bloomberg for President?

[revots33]

Read this article in New York Magazine recently about Bloomberg (maybe) running in 08.

Personally, I'd love to see this for several reasons:

1. Bloomberg is a fiscal conservative but a social liberal, which in my mind is an ideal combination.

2. He would have to run as an independent, and an independent victory is the best hope for fixing the f**ed up 2-party system.

3. He's a great manager and a great mayor who shoots straight, gets things done, and has no tolerance for fake political hysterics (like the hysteria over the Dubai ports deal).

Anyone think Bloomberg, or any independent candidate (or any Jew, for that matter) would have a legit chance to be president?
