Mayor Michael Bloomberg has suddenly managed to make speculation about his future look like a tug of war — stay four more years and guard the city against financial ruin or leave now and do the same for the nation.

In recent days there have been pleas for the billionaire businessman to go in opposite directions. One has him changing New York’s term-limits law to run again and stay in office as the fallout from the financial crisis threatens the city. The other envisions him going to Washington to head the Treasury Department in the next presidential administration, become an economic czar or sit on an oversight committee to supervise the Bush administration’s bailout plan.
