Bloomberg Visits New Orleans

Recently Michael Bloomberg made a visit to New Orleans to tour the damaged city. While on the trip Bloomberg made frisky statements regarding both the Republican and Democratic candidates. He noted that the candidates are "pandering in full throttle." Although it is uncertain whether he will run for president his comments during the New Orleans tour proved to be a little more than observational. Bloomberg bluntly said "You will not hear the truth on the campaign trail because the campaign trail is, as somebody described it, pandering in full throttle." It is evident that his wording has also changed a bit regarding whether he will run or not, earlier he would state "I'm not running," while more recently he changed the wording to "I'm not a candidate." While this does not seem significant, it may very well be a minor indication that he considering running more and more. He also expressed discontent with the dishonesty of the candidates, and stated that "'I have a secret plan to end the war' is not an acceptable answer." Bloomberg's entrance into the presidential race is still not certain but it certainly is anticipated by some.

So what's the mayor of New York City doing in New Orleans? Could it be that this city represents a major NATIONAL ISSUE that Bloomberg is trying to get associated with? Hmmm... I wonder.... Great job on your first submission, but next time, make sure to include links to your sources so that those interested in following this guy can do so.
