WASHINGTON (Reuters) - In an unpredictable 2008 presidential race, the prospect of a viable third-party candidacy -- particularly a self-financed bid by billionaire Michael Bloomberg -- could be the biggest wild card of all.
Reports that Bloomberg, New York's Republican mayor, is willing to spend a big chunk of his personal fortune -- perhaps as much as $1 billion -- on a White House run set off a new round of speculation about his intentions and his possible impact on the November 2008 election.
(My bet is that he would knock Guiliani completely out of the race! )
Answer: i think a third-party candidate would be a nice touch.the two major parties right now owe so much to their financial backers,how can they have our country's best interests in mind.i think the fact he's willing to put his own money up is a big deal because it means less obligation on his part to keep lobbyists happy.will it work?who knows.is it worth a try?defiantly.

Question: Where to finance a supercharger?
I want to buy a supercharger but the prices are so expensive,the only way I can afford it is through financing.But when I finance it I need the complete package:ecm computer chip,fuel pump,boost gauges.I can't find anyone online who finaces a supercharger, I've seen sts turbo they finance I thought about them I asked my mechanic he told me for my specific truck that a supercharger would give me way more torque and rear wheel horsepower.I have a 2005 chevy silverado 4x4 with a 4.8 V8 and great modifications:K&N air filter,Vortex high performance muffler, and airaid throttle body spacer.How much more torque and hp will you think I'll gain with a supercharger?100-200? I have the slightest clue. Help me please Axelbeast
Answer: I would look into a Magnacharger supercharger system. These units are complete so nothing else will be needed. On top of that these systems are reliable. They even come with a 3-year warranty. You can expect around 100-130 extra HP with this supercharger, and best of all it is intercooled.
The advantage this system does have over turbo systems and other sc system is that it will give you great performance in the lower RPM band. Where other systems will not come on until mid RPM range.
Financing a supercharger will be hard to find however you might get better rates if you go with a personal loan. Other than that you really only have credit cards or multiple credit cards as an option.
All in all the Magnacharger is a great choice. They design these systems around stock applications so you don’t have to worry about blowing engines because they are running to much boost or out of tune. I know you will love this system.
