Unity 08 Issues Words of Support

The co-founders of Unity 08, a bipartisan political movement attracting Americans deeply concerned with the polarization of our political system, issued words of support yesterday regarding Mayor Bloomberg's decision to change his party affiliation:

"The announcement today by Michael Bloomberg reinforces what Unity08 has been saying since our inception, that the current political system is broken and does not address the concerns of the majority of the population. Although we had no prior knowledge of Mayor Bloomberg’s intentions and we have no idea what it may or may not mean to Unity08, it is obvious that he too understands the need for common ground."Doug Bailey, Co-Founder, Unity08

"Michael Bloomberg has always seemed like a perfect independent candidate, and a competent one at that."Jerry Rafshoon, Co-Founder, Unity08

Mayor Bloomberg has also been getting a lot of great press. He essentially got ten minutes of coverage at the start of the Today Show this morning.
