93. Do you know if he's running for President?
None of this discussion matters until he "declares" then all bets are off. He'll drain fence-sitters and disgusted North Eastern Dem's from our candidates, and he'll certainly kick Rudy's ass in the same area because he made Rudy look like a schnook regarding running a "giant corporation" like NYC


But he also has a "mommy complex". No smoking in the city (a good thing) banned trans-fats( I don't eat fast foods, but it appears to be a good thing) wants to reduce pollution and congestion in the city, plant millions of trees.

Those were never Republican traits, but many of his detractor bitch about him (as do so many on DU). He'll be remembered as a Mayor who was tough with the cops and firefighters, took care of the city, tried to make life a bit easier for everyone, and didn't throw his wealth around to the detriment of the poor. Should he have returned to being a Democrat, you bet. If he runs with Lugar, he'll hurt all candidates.

If he runs with Les Clark, he's going to make the race VERY interesting.


If he runs.

Goodnight
