ya, this is probably true. Bloomberg is not interested in playing spoiler, reportedly, he only wants to run if he can win. McCain & Obama take the wind out of his sails.

This year is not a good one for Bloomberg. The Democrat-leaning people are very enthusiastic about the Democratic candidates. He would hurt Clinton if he could actually win New York, but that is quesitonable. Overall, he would kill the Republicans chances, IMO. I don't think there is much chance that Bloomberg will run. Maybe in a Clinton-Romney matchup there is some opportunity for him, but still not likely enough for him to win. The system is too stacked against 3rd parties.
