Former New York mayor Mike Bloomberg has elbowed himself into the Democratic nomination race solely on the basis of his fortune.
Without more than $50 billion to his name, Bloomberg would almost certainly be running a campaign like another late entrant, former Massachusetts governor Deval Patrick, who hasn't been heard from.
It's a free country, and Bloomberg can spend as much money as he likes on whatever suits his fancy.
Bloomberg 2020 is still an affront to small-d democratic sensibilities, a tribute not to his superior political skills or messaging compared with the other candidates, but his access to an enormous personal bank account.
Bloomberg is running a presidential campaign that Curtis LeMay would love, carpet-bombing the airwaves every single day.
In comparison to the other candidates, Bloomberg is a Wizard of Oz candidate, shielded and inflated by his TV ads.
If Bloomberg succeeds, he will enrich many TV stations, consultants, pollsters, and campaign workers, but impoverish our politics.
