Just as new poll numbers revive speculation that Michael Bloomberg could successfully run for governor of New York in 2010, someone who wants to see Bloomberg run for another, higher office emailed this photo to fellow supporters.
It shows Bloomberg, top advisor Kevin Sheekey and the mayor’s girlfriend Diana Taylor meeting Karin Gallet, an organizer in the movement to draft Bloomberg into the presidential race. The meeting took place after Bloomberg’s public interview with Tom Brokaw at Cooper Union late last month.
While Bloomberg has talked down his interest in that race, he has demonstrated a willingness at least to be photographed for the cause.
