Bloomberg was a lifelong Democrat before running as a GOP candidate for Mayor a few years ago. Bloomberg has embraced raising taxes to raise city revenue, including a $3 billion tax increase in 2003 and the advocacy of congestion taxes. Bloomberg does not support border protection, saying before the Senate Judiciary Committee that border protection is “futile.” He supports the rights of illegal immigrants, issuing Executive Order 41, which prohibits city employers to ask about prospective employees’ immigration status unless directed to by law. He is also a strong advocate of gun control. From the looks of these facts, which I found very easily doing a Yahoo search, Mayor Bloomberg is a Democrat, supporting Republicans and Republican ideals when convenient. Although Democrats, according to polls, are more satisfied with their field of candidates than Republicans, Republicans are dissatisfied because the top three candidates are perceived to be less conservative. A Bloomberg independent run would not change Republican dissatisfaction with "Rudy McRomney" but could draw Democrats away from Clinton, Obama, and Edwards.
