It's getting drafty in here (updated)
It appears that some hunches were right on about the Unity08 guys closing up shop so that they could concentrate on their real goal: inciting New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg to run for President.
I got an email from the ostensibly nascent Draft Bloomberg movement the other day, and it was co-signed by Doug Bailey. How did Bailey have my email address? It couldn't have been from the Unity08 address book, could it? Yeah? UPDATE: I received a definitive NO on that question. Please see the first comment below. Good to know.
But Bloomberg isn't the only one with a draft committee following him around at a respectful distance (behind the bloggers): cable news personality Lou Dobbs has one, too.
And what of the Draft Sam Nunn crowd? Any word from them since Nunn was at the Oklahoma University gathering of the centrists?
Finally, don't rule out a movement coming your way sometime after Super Tuesday that will ask Congressman Ron Paul to mount a third-party run.
Any others?
Forgot to add: Bloomberg wouldn't win New York City.

I assure you that no member information was transferred from Unity08 to draftbloomberg.com. Because you actively write about politics, we wanted you to know about the movement. You email address is listed on this web site. I apologize if this has been an inconvenience.

You know, I have been getting Huckabee emails lately, and I have no clue how they got my address.
