I've seen this done before and it is no accident.

In California 2008, proponents of Prop 8 sent out these flyers before the election in an attempt to make it appear that Barack Obama was endorsing the ballot proposition. They especially targeted minority neighborhoods. Prop 8 passed.

Bloomberg's response is a 60 second excerpt from a speech?

Didn't refute anything. Good to know when challenged on his right wing record, Bloomberg has NOTHING to say to challenge it.
