Mayor Bloomberg Endorses Obama for Re-election, Citing Climate Change
In a surprise announcement, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg said Thursday that
Hurricane Sandy had reshaped his thinking about the presidential campaign, and
he announced that he was endorsing President Obama.
Mr. Bloomberg, a political independent in this third term leading New York City,
has been sharply critical of both Mr. Obama, a Democrat, and Mitt Romney, the
president’s Republican rival, saying that both men have failed to candidly
confront the problems afflicting the nation. But he said he had decided over the
past several days that Mr. Obama was the best candidate to tackle the global
climate change that the mayor believes contributed to the violent storm, which
took the lives of at least 37 New Yorkers and caused billions of dollars in
damage.
