It is true that Bloomberg was a Democrat until there were just too many of them running for mayor for B. to get a good footing for the race. Plus, there was the Giuliani afterglow. Now, with Ferrer lingering in the polls, it is clear that only Bill Clinton could beat B. in a race for Mayor.
It seems perverse somehow that B. switched parties yet stands for things the right despises, like Choice & Gay Rights, and no one talks about it, not even Pataki, who is so likely to open his gaping maw in an attempt to sound presidential.
Let's see what B. has to say once some big cases get to the Supreme Court. Let's see if he can stay in a party that so clearly desires to curtail civil liberties, create a an ever wider gap between rich and poor, re-package Empire, and put the military in charge of internal defense (all of this predicted by Plato, remember). Yes, the Democracy has run amuck and now it is time for the Just King to rule, because everyone knows that when democracy falls apart, an Authoritarian Regime takes over. Bloomberg switching sides in order to win represents not motivation but disintegration. The Roman Senate was all pwerful until Cesar swept into town with an army and put an end to that. Would we allow that to happen in order to control terrorism? At least the Romans had a great sense of style.
Who shall be the next Cesar?
