The Wall Street Journal offers this editorial. A snippet: “Mayor Bloomberg, in his regular denials that he intends to run for President, likes to note that a ‘short, Jewish, divorced billionaire’ doesn’t sound very electable. We’re not sure how important the first three traits are, but the last, far from disqualifying him, is the main reason behind the Bloomberg boomlet. Unlike most other American politicians, he is rich enough to finance his own independent Presidential campaign. And thanks to our campaign finance laws, he’s a rare candidate who doesn’t have to raise money in hundreds of $2,300 or smaller increments.”
