Bloomberg Switches Parties...Again

New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg has quit the Republican party and registering as an independent.

Well, why not? He's tried everything else. He was a Democrat who switched to the GOP (some would say opportunistically) in 2001. He's never embraced any of the political positions of the Republican party, instead pushing that "big tent" idea that a party can have multiple personality disorder and still win elections. Now that the GOP is having problems, Bloomberg wants to leave it and do something else. I say good riddance.
