Republican Carl Paladino, aided by a 4 -1 margin among Tea Partiers, trails New York State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo, the Democratic candidate for Governor, 49 - 43 percent among likely voters, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.
Only 18 percent of New York State likely voters consider themselves part of the Tea Party movement, but they back Paladino 77 - 18 percent.

But Paladino's been using a scorched Earth policy, which has been working against King Cuomo.
Outstanding!!
Such awesome news. I love Paladino’s bear knuckles campaign. It’s put the Sissy Andrew on the defensive and put him back on his heels. Brilliant. Paladino is campaigning like a man who has nothing to lose and the result is he may win.
Now the coup de grace would be Paladino connecting Cuomo to the subprime mess and resulting economic catastrophe. Paladino needs to point out Cuomo’s role in creating the subprime mess while HUD Secretary under Clinton when he put Freddie and Fannie on a full steam ahead course in buying up more and more subprime loans and increased regulations forcing the lending industry to make such loans. Even the liberal Village Voice in 2008 connected Cuomo’s actions as HUD Secretary as being a primary cause of the economic collapse. Pointing all this out could about finish Prince Cuomo off.
I love it. Hehehehe, snort, snort, snicker, snicker, bwahahahahahahaha. Go Paladino.
Good news - I listen to Buffalo radio a bit and Paladino may be a little different, but it’s certain how he is going to vote. That should be the mantra for O’Donnell as well.
Looks like it is working to me. I think NYers like the chutzpah, but what do I know? I am a slow southerner.
The best part about Carl’s campaign is his vow NOT to run for another term, should he win this time around.
He’s going work his butt off, repairing New York, and then he’s going home.
You gotta love this guy.
Quinnipiac’s polls are notoriously biased to the hard left. Paladino may really be UP by 6 points right now, but I hope his team doesn’t take this surge too seriously and remove the foot from the gas pedal - full speed ahead and trash that pantywaist Coomo!
“”Paladino needs to point out Cuomo’s role in creating the subprime mess while HUD Secretary under Clinton when he put Freddie and Fannie on a full steam ahead course in buying up more and more subprime loans and increased regulations forcing the lending industry to make such loans.””
He did that in a gut stabbing way on the John Gamblin(sp) radio show yesterday. I listen to him on the commute to NJ.
He needs two terms to clean up the mess.
I am 1000000000% on the paladino bandwagon and already signed up to volunteer and place signs.
Surprisingly close.
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
Cuomo’s plan was to refuse to debate and ignore his existence. And the media whores were ready to go along with that.
Now he’s hauling out his big guns (”Republican” Bloomberg) and it ain’t doing a bit of good!
If your opponent won’t debate you on the issues, then pull him right down into the gutter where he belongs. Way to go!
GREAT!
GO PALADINO!
People want the establishment REMOVED.
