Gov Would Poll-verize Either of His Rivals (Pataki has 2-1 lead over both RAT candidates!)

Gov. Pataki received great news at the start of the state Republican convention yesterday: a new poll giving him his highest job-approval rating ever.

The Marist College survey showed Pataki with a record-high 72 percent statewide approval rating - up from 64 percent last month.

Bwa-ha-ha! It couldn't be any worse for Cuomo or McCall if Hillary herself endorsed one of them!

Don't rejoice too much yet. Andy Cuomo is mobbed up. Funny things happen in elections when there's a Mafia candidate. Andy's dirty, believe me. He participated in the strongarm takeover of a small bank in Miami that ultimately failed. There was a lot of evidence that mob muscle was behind the takeover, and that Cuomo had engineered the Mafia's involvement in the situation. Of course, Uncle Janet and the castrated DOJ held Andy's coat while his buddies did the dirty work.

pataki's a rino but to watch him pulverize cuomo would be priceless

Thats my feeling as well. I remember I met Pataki at a fundraiser and he came with an entourage that would have made a rap star blush. However, I would just love to see a Cuomo totally squished by him even though he is a RINO.

did you ever read the weekly standard article on cuomo i guess it may have been a year ago he is a piece of s**t pardon my french but the if the shoe fits

Pataki has outed himself as a Rockefeller Republican. His budgets are worse than Cuomo's were.

Fortunately, Pataki is being contested for both the Republican and Conservative lines.

What was the Weekly Standard article about? I know he is a high-handed liberal jerk who is an elitist and believes the whole world owes him something. I also know that when he was at HUD (or whatever its called) I know that billions of dollars went missing and he personally saw that resources went to people that gave him political favors.

Not only will he coast to victory, but he's even got black pro athletes supporting his candidacy over McCall--

Elton Brand, Clippers forward and fellow Peekskill native, urges voters to choose Pataki

The brunette-haired woman beside him is George's daughter Emily that I think has a bright future in politics in front of her. She's working her ass off going to every possible stop in NY to rally GOP voters and encourage people to register with the GOP.

On the topic of party growth, johnny-come-lately to the GOP Mayor Bloomberg has donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to the NY GOP and has raised money for the national party as well-- including raising money for Pataki (who's already raked in $16M-- twice his challengers' totals).

I hope Pataki destroys Cuomo!
