Speaking openly about running with Michael Bloomberg is certainly laying his cards upon the table. It is true that under current campaign finance restrictions one has to be a billionaire to run a Presidential campaign. But choosing such a running mate would also cost Hagel his main advantage as a candidate - being an alternative to Eastern establishment that controls the two major parties. Mayor Bloomberg I don't know that well, but he gives me the impression of being softer, gentler version of Rudy Giuliani. My question is, "Why would Mayor Bloomberg want to spend his money financing Senator Hagel's campaign?"William Daltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17498970562625648572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22609525.post-33404497800790449352007-05-14T16:14:00.000-05:002007-05-14T16:14:00.000-05:00Michael Bloomberg?
