Peas in a pod. From the San Fran Chronicle: New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg backed President Barack Obama over Republican Mitt Romney
on Thursday, saying the incumbent Democrat will bring critically needed
leadership to fight climate change after the East Coast devastation
wrought by Hurricane Sandy.
The
endorsement from the politically independent and nationally
recognizable mayor was a major boost for Obama, who is spending the
campaign's final days trying to win over independent voters whose voices
will be critical in determining the winner of Tuesday's election.
Both
candidates had eagerly sought the nod from Bloomberg, who didn't
endorse a presidential candidate in 2008 and has publicly grumbled about
both Obama and Romney. But Bloomberg said the possibility that Sandy
resulted from climate change had made the stakes of the election that
much clearer.
