    oops.. my mistake

    ..glenn, you made it clear what you thought about Bloomberg's possible candidacy and who would benefit..somehow I missed it.

    My bad.

    It is a worry. If the Establishment powers-that-be feel threatened enough by an Edwards candidacy

    --I've thought all along Edwards was the best choice at this point. We need radical change to clean up Cheney's mess. Clinton won't do it. Neither will Obama, who, whatever else you might say about him, has been in the deep pockets of ADM for a very long time. And that's pretty much all I need to know about him. This bullshit about post-partisanship is just that. Until Obama is ready to bite the hand that's fed him, I have no use for him--

    then Bloomberg will run, the the GOP nominee will win. Probably McCain.

    But it'd sure be fun to see it all shake out. And, who knows? Things might not go the way the oligarchs prefer. They don't always. 'course, there's always cheating. The GOP's very good at that, and the Dems are going to have to watch out for it everywhere.
