The View from the Capital of the World

Well, my cunning plan is working. Guiliani is leading the GOP race, Hillary is leading the Donkey Derby, and Bloomberg has quit the Republican Party. If he actually joins the race we could have three candidates from New York in the general election for president. Even the Times has taken notice. Of course there is a downside to my plan. Bloomberg’s entry would likely guarantee a Rudi victory. And I lived through much of Rudi’s term as Mayor, and I fully believe he would be worse than GWB. I’m not making this up. I’m not kidding. He is even more of a fascist than Bush.
