Village Voice:

Politico posted an excerpt from Joyce Purnick's new biography of Mike Bloomberg this morning and, incredibly, no one noticed the astonishing references in it to Bloomberg's real attitude about Barack Obama.

McCain and Bloomberg.
Birds of a feather?

WORSE.

IMHO, McCain has more respect for the people. Bloomberg is an unabashed autocrat.

From the link, and worth a repeat:

""But what the hell do they [McCain and Obama] know about management and dealing with people? Nothing. If you look at my company, why, after all the success that we had before I ran for office would you not think that I couldn't run the government? What the hell do I gotta do to prove myself? Or, after the success my company has had and our [mayoral] administration has had, why do you think I wouldn't be qualified to be president of the United States? I mean, for God's sake, I'm not running, but this is not different.""

That, and the Mayor-for-Life didn't meet the height requirement.
