The Logic of Bloomberg

Submitted by H. Tuttle, Jan 4, 2008 11:26

Gentlemen:

You are living in a fantasy land. Bloomberg wins Florida because "his daughter has ties" to the State and endorsements? Win CA because of Arnold's endorsement? Your logic is, well, questionable. While I voted for Mr. Bloomberg for mayor, twice, I would never vote for him in a presidential election. And, indeed, you dramatically overstate the importance or value of endorsements, which have never been conclusively proven to lead to substantial additional votes for any candidate.

I'm sorry, but I'm with the Commentary posting on this issue. I have no idea why you find Bloomberg appealing for President, nor can I understand your rose-colored view of his ultimately chances, which I peg at zero.

Sincerely,
A native New Yorker from Queens
