A bunch of wild-eyed idealists formed Unity08 to get Mike Bloomberg to run for president which he's supposedly been ramping up to do for months anyway and somehow still hasn't yet managed to pull off. The group behind the site is having a meeting next week which Bloomberg and his pal Chuck Hagel will attend to talk about the importance of bipartisanship, which, come on guys, is pretty fucking lame. The whole idea of the Unity08 thing is to build a network of people fed up with two-party gridlock and influence of money, blah bah blah, and then "recruit" an independent centrist candidate who also happens to be a billionaire so that he's not beholden to any interest groups or whatever and create a benevolent consensus government. The two problems with those ideas right off the bat are (1) bipartisanship and (2) billionaire.
