Update: Bloomberg's Born to Run
Born to RunUpdate: A self-identified conservative Christian from New Jersey called into the mayor's weekly radio program just now to urge Bloomberg to run for president. The mayor said he was flattered, but added, "The bottom line is I'm going to be mayor for the next three years." -- Azi PaybarahI was born a long, long time ago-and became an Eagle Scout. And then John Hopkins accepted him which they're still happy about. Harvard Grad-then Wall Street pro Got fired, opened a company, made big dough (oh!) Two-term Mayor, so serene Then I read...New York Magazine... I say "Next stop-Washington!" 'Cause folks like us...Baby we were Born to Run!
We'll win, you'll see-and beat the G.O.P. and Democrats Unite the country-make more jobs And banish all trans fat! Fix the schools-make profits grow Get the White House painted saffron by Christo (oh!) I know I said this job I'd keep But Sheekey said "Don't be cheap Only cost you half a bil-ion 'Cause folks like us...Baby, we were Born to Run!
Now let's all follow our leader there And find a treasure trove We all will get big cabinet jobs And I can be Karl Rove I'll become Supreme Court Judge I'll get the Olympics for D.C. In 14 years with him, I'll go from Bloomberg L.P....to Bloomberg V.P.!
The City Hall team is so great - that Bullpen is the best With Leg. Affairs and Research, Correspondence, M.I.S. Operations, Fiscal, too Security, the drivers, C.A.U. (Whoo!) I still wonder what I should do Called my mother - to get her view I said, "Please advise your son" And mother said - "Baby, you were Born to Run!" Mother said - "Baby, you were Born to Run!" Mother said - "Baby, you were Born to Run!"
I guess the clueless mayor didn't see the WNBC/Marist poll.
It's really shocking that this guy thinks he's doing a great job.
Yes, let's elect Bloomy mayor, so that he can call ALL the black people in this country thugs and have them shot 50 times.
Any senior staff sing?

Bloomberg is a coward.
Yes, all of the DMs were up with him minus a notable one.
Fidel: according to the same poll, 2/3 of new yorkers think he is doing a good job of being mayor. How could you say its "shocking" that he thinks he's doing a great job?
Nobody's perfect...but at least Bloomberg's been the MOST honest guy NY has had as Mayor.....history will prove him great for the city!
5:01 PM no it doesn't, it says he is the equal of Al Sharpton in terms of becoming president and it says half the country is against independent candidates. Not only is bloomberg clueless, he has staffers who are also disconnected boneheads.
Bloomberg "great" and "honest"
LOL!!! Everytime the Dept. of Education releases a slap on the back statistic, the NYS Education Dept. puts them in check a few days later. Bloomberg is a liar who thinks he can manage by perception and deception, the board of ed is in the worst shape it's ever been in with the high school drop out rate on the rise and bogus facts and figures about the new small high schhols(which don't provide legally required services for immigrant and special ed students). How about no bid contracts in violation of the city charter or how about the recently begun federal investigation into misallocation by the city of 9/11 funds to prevent first responders from receiving health benefits? Everyone should read the sample man on the street interviews conducted by Quinnippiac (it was in Newsday this past week),most of those folks dislike the mayor. The list goes on and on and you liars at city hall can't change the facts. He is the worst mayor since Abe Beame and has no idea about middle and working class folks.
Personally speaking, the guy strikes me as being a coward and a nerd.
