More Coy From The Bloom

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in 2008 Election

Does he say no? Of course not. He says stuff like…

“My intention is to be mayor for the next 925 days and probably about 10 hours,� he said. “I’ve got the greatest job in the world and I’m going to keep doing it.� [...]

“If everyone in the world was dead and I was the only one alive? Sure.� [...]

“I’ve got the best job in government,� he said, “and I’m looking forward to doing that and afterward, as you know, I’ve bought a building to set up a foundation in, I’ve started making some grants.� [...]

Several polling companies trotted out numbers from polls conducted overnight of polls conducted over night on his support if he were to run.

“I think they’re wasting their time,� Mr. Bloomberg said. “I’m not a candidate.�

I certainly didn’t hear a no in there. And you know why?

Because he’s leaving his options open.

More later.
