With N.Y. Gov. Eliot Spitzer's resignation earlier today, speculation now turns to which non-Democrat would be best positioned to run for the office in the '10 election. Newsday reports that, by an "overwhelming 73 percent to 22 percent margin", New York City voters want Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Republican turned Independent, to run. Let's hope he does.
If there is not a strong enough Republican to be elected, then Bloomberg would be a good second choice. Bloomberg also needs to get his mind off of running for President this year as an Independent. We don't need him to play a spoiler role a la Ross Perot in '92.
Please note: The postings of "G. Morris", written by John K. Bush and which end in 2016, stated his views as of the dates of posting and should not be understood as current assertions of his views. The postings, which have not been altered since they came to an end, remain on this blog to preserve the historical record. In 2017, Mr. Bush took a position that precludes further public political comments or endorsements. He will no longer be contributing to this blog.
