Was Michael Bloomberg this corrupt? I doubt it.

The #2 position on the Open Secrets list of top donors to 2014 candidates is the city of New York. The details show $5.9 million in donations to a PAC for Mayor Bloomberg's favourite candidates and another $2.5 million to a Democratic PAC. It would be so unusual for city funds to be used for a national race -- and Bloomberg has more than enough of his own money to spend -- that my assumption is that something has to be wrong with the data.
