Billionaire Michael Bloomberg disclosed Tuesday that he will not run for president. That's one less prominent centrist in the race for the Democratic nomination, writes jcahealey.
Former New York mayor Michael Bloomberg, shown speaking to reporters outside the White House in February 2013, said Tuesday he would not run for president in 2020.
Having assembled a campaign team and tested the waters, the Democrat-turned-Republican-turned-independent-turned-Democrat determined that his chances of winning the Democratic nomination for president in 2020 were But Democrats weren’t likely to rally behind a white male billionaire as their standard-bearer, especially not one who was something of a law-and-order mayor . Bloomberg’s polling evidently told him that as well.Still, Democrats can certainly use more center-leaning, business-steeped candidates like Bloomberg to help rebut the narrative that Trump is advancing about the party being taken over by socialists and extremists.
There are other center-leaning Democrats in the race, and it’s possible they’ll have better ideas than Bloomberg. Sen. Amy Klobuchar is one. Another is former Rep. John Delaney . Former Vice President Joe Biden would be a third, if he jumps in.a Gallup poll
