Not me! Didn't vote for mayor. I couldn't vote for Mark Green, though.

Interestingly, the NGO/nonprofit crowd is rather fond of Bloomberg because he's open to "new ideas" and willing to act "above politics," meaning that he has no popular base to speak of, so he doesn't owe anyone anything. Further evidence of how alienated these people are from the masses.
