JM is making me sick! anyone with any knowledge of gun issues
can not support Bloomberg being anywhere near the White House!
Bloomberg is fanatically anti gun, he makes Obama look like a dang NRA life member, If JM picks Bloomberg Then I will be voting Constitution Party or Libertarian
and never voting R in presidential races again. If
Obama picks Richardson or Webb as VP it would be a better ticket than
a Bloomberg VP.
If I had hair I would be pulling it out!

ALSO BOOSTING BLOOMY FOR GOV
June 11, 2008 --
Sen. John McCain praised Mayor Bloomberg yesterday - talking up Hizzoner as a strong candidate for governor and refusing to rule him out as a vice presidential candidate.
Asked during an interview with The Post whether the term-limited billionaire mayor should be able to seek re-election to a third term, he said there's been "some speculation" about Bloomberg trying to move to Albany.
"Do I think he could serve the state of New York and the country well? Of course," McCain said, during a sitdown at the New York Hilton.
He was also asked about having the mayor as his running mate.
"We don't talk about our vice-presidential possibilities," he said, but pointedly added, "I appreciate Mayor Bloomberg enormously and the great job he's done as mayor."
McCain said he didn't know "what it takes" to change term limits, but suggested that Bloomberg remaining at City Hall would also suit him fine - even though Hizzoner quit the Republican Party in 2007 to register as an independent.
"I just think he's done a great job," McCain said. "From all the polls I've seen, New Yorkers feel the same way."
The Arizona senator also the spread the love to former GOP rival Rudy Giuliani, Police Commissioner Ray Kelly, and even Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton. Asked if he had a role for Giuliani down the road, McCain said, "Oh yeah. He's a great American. He united America," referring to his leadership in the aftermath of 9/11.
"I've been with him a lot. I appreciate more than I could tell you his friendship and support. And that was steadfast throughout the primary."
Giuliani endorsed McCain after dropping out as a presidential candidate, and his top fund-raisers are now raising cash for McCain.
It's likely that the ex-mayor will get a featured speaking role at the GOP convention in St. Paul, Minn.
McCain lauded Kelly's crime-fighting abilities and did not rule out tapping him to serve in his White House, perhaps as secretary of homeland security or head of the FBI.
"I'm a great admirer. He's a very, very good leader," McCain said.
