Bloomberg Robocalls, Mentions Obama a Lot

Here’s the robocall Michael Bloomberg’s campaign is putting out, telling people how “the mayor endorsed President Obama’s health care reform.”[link fixed]

The call—which was provided to me by Bloomberg’s campaign—goes on to say, “Like President Obama, Mayor Bloomberg says it’s time to put politics aside” and reform health care. It then directs people to an official federal Web site dealing with the issue.

Bloomberg was in Washington earlier this week discussing the issue.

Bloomberg’s people have argued that the mayor’s neutrality in the presidential race is, actually, a benefit, since nearly every other Democrat in New York endorsed “against” Obama during the primary.
