    Sez who?

    "...it's hard to see how the candidacy of a divorced, unmarried, stridently pro-gun-control, pro-choice, socially liberal New York City billionaire would accomplish anything..."

    Any reason Bloomberg can't merely transform himself into a gun-loving, antiabortion, social conservative? Very few of the candidates, esp. on the right, seem constrained by who they used to be from trying to become who they think the voters want them to be.
