It’s déjà vu all over again for Mayor Bloomberg.

The Republican-turned-independent Hizzoner yesterday said he has “no plans” to run for president. But that hasn’t kept him from reveling in the rampant speculation over the possibility — just as he did during the last presidential cycle.

The latest rumors swirled after it was revealed that Bloomberg was hiring Hillary Rodham Clinton’s former media strategist, Howard Wolfson, as an administration adviser.

Pressed about the significance of the move, Bloomberg smiled and told a reporter, “I can’t believe you’re even asking” about presidential plans,” then went on to say he’s thrilled to have someone like Wolfson leave a lucrative consulting business to join city government.

In the past presidential campaign, Bloomberg flirted for months with running, clearly enjoying the national attention he was receiving before he finally pulled the plug.
