Letter: Bloomberg for president?

To the editor:

I believe it is correct to say that many Republicans are disappointed in the candidates that the party has put forth for the office of president.

Though many are against the re-election of President Obama, they should not forget his organization defeated a Clinton organization that was no pushover.

I have serious doubts former Gov. Romney has the national organization to beat Obama, either.

To start planning for 2016 is not a good strategy, however.

Financially our country is in trouble now and another four years of deficit budgets will lead to a catastrophe.

Is there still time to conduct an effort to get a person with stronger prospects such as the mayor of New York City to become a candidate?

He certainly has the credentials.
