"Like I’ve said previously, I think to you specifically, I think Michael Bloomberg when he takes a good close look at where his priorities are in terms of the issues he wants the president to fight for and advance he will eventually conclude that those are well cared for in the Democratic nominees’ priority and the Democratic party’s agenda, certainly not cared for by any of the Republicans that are running right now. On the contrary, they would roll back progress on issues like education and consumer protection and you know gun safety and protecting people from people who would do them harm. So I think ultimately he’ll conclude that his issues are well cared for in our party and will choose not to run and will find that it’s not necessary for him to run to make sure those issues have a home, in the– in our party’s candidate for president.”In other words, Bloomberg doesn't need to run because Hillary is already planning to implement his agenda. That agenda is: Gun control, gun control, gun control, more gun control, gun confiscation, and nanny-state micromanagement of everyone's life. If the RNC was smart - or if it was less preoccupied with its own civil war - they'd be cutting the campaign ads as we speak. Everyone should be told what Bloomberg wants and that "Debbie Wasserman-Schultz says Hillary Clinton will advance Bloomberg's agenda." It's already been overwhelmingly rejected by a majority of Americans, and the fact that Wasserman-Schultz says Hillary will fight for it can only help the Republican cause. Since that probably won't happen, let's hope Bloomberg makes the right call, and becomes the Democrat's 2016 version of Ross Perot. Ignore Debbie, Mr. Mayor. Run!
