New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's tenure at City Hall is set to end this November but the billionaire is not yet ready to climb down from his bully pulpit. The business mogul turned politician has launched a gun safety crusade in the U.S. and is bankrolling his very own super PAC to support candidates across the nation championing his pet issue. The Democrat turned RINO, Republican in Name Only, turned Independent has taken on the gun lobby after the tragedies in Aurora, Colo. and Newtown, Conn. by pouring more than $10 million so far into his Independence USA PAC.
