    Out of all the things you quoted, this is the lone statement about Bloomberg I made "after "superstom" sandy, instead of taking the initiative to build infrastructure to protect the city against future storms he instantly blamed climate change."

    If you doubt that he said that read post 22 or a simple google search.

    My guess is you are confused and instead of reading again you made a reply.

    if two outsiders are selected for the two parties, they'll bring in Bloomberg as independent candidate.

    Bloomburg really shouldn't run. I dont see him pulling a significant enough vote as an independent and he will likely hurt the democrats more than anything. If one can't top this field of candidates, then they probably shouldn't bother to run.

    He should have lobbied for a cabinet post with Obama, then positioned himself as a Gergen or Schulz type.

    Agree with this. I didn't think he was going for the reasons above.
