There’s some merit in this Daily News piece, “Insiders say term limits, supporter apathy could damage Mayor Bloomberg’s chances of reelection“:
“… some insiders see troubling signs that he could be tossed out of City Hall. They fear lingering voter anger about term limits, low-turnout primaries, passionate anti-Bloomberg Democrats and complacent Bloomberg supporters could combine to create the biggest political upset of a generation …”
I agree that changing term limits has pissed a lot of people off, but I’m not sure Bill Thompson is a strong enough candidate to take him out. He’s run a very weak campaign so far and Democrats don’t appear to be very excited about him.
NYC toss its simpering, little liberal mayor? Oh, say it ain’t so!
