Political and Fiscal Thoughts For the Night

1.  Isn’t the ability to pick good proxies and delegate authority to them the sign of a good President?  Don’t commanders-in-chief who take on every duty tend to burn out (something that may be dangerous for some senior citizens)?

2.  I wonder if Bloomberg is kicking himself for not having run.  It would have been really great to have a Bloomberg, or even a Perot in as a viable candidate considering the developments of the past couple of weeks.
