CNN has reported that the mayor of New York City, Michael Bloomberg, has resigned from the GOP. The speculation is that he'll pursue a 3rd party presidential bid.

This is the same Bloomberg who left the Democratic party in 2001 because there were too many Democrats running for the job he wanted. He joined the Republicans, then financed his own mayoral race.

Now he has left the Republicans, having gotten what he wanted from them.

Way to show your loyalty, Bloomberg!

This is also the Bloomberg who brought us mass violations of civil rights during the most recent GOP convention in 2004. People were arrested and kept in unsanitary conditions for the crime of speaking their mind or talking to the press. Yep, folks were arrested while talking to the press.

Bloomberg, you won't have my vote.
