Bloomberg makes it official in Thursday New York Times op-ed that he will not run for president. So, as I have pointed out dozens of times in this blog, if you were a better person it would have worked out best to just trust the first hundred times he was denying he would run for president.

I am not — and will not be — a candidate for president. But I’ll join others in helping a candidate with an independent, nonpartisan approach win the White House.
