Atrios boils down Bloomberg's bipartisan BS:
http://atrios.blogspot.com/2007_12_30_archive.html#8494206846617616054

"We're a dozen or so old, white, mostly male people who for the most part don't hold elected office. Unless the presidential candidates do what we tell them to do, we're going to encourage our short divorced pal from New York City to spend a billion bucks of his personal fortune to fuck around with the election because that's what the people need."

2. Direct Hit!
:applause: for Atrios.

The only exception to this disgruntled perspective would be that Bloomberg declares a "Unity" candidacy with Al Gore, with Gore as the Presidential candidate. I'd be okay with that!

5. Hooray--Atrios called them out!
My thought was--they are a bunch of so-called moderates who cannot bear the thought of the Republican party going down, so they are going to create a place for moderate Repukes to land.
