Pataki To Pals: Count Me Out In Albany, Plan On D.C.

[brooklynite]

March 29, 2005 -- ALBANY — Gov. Pataki has decided not to seek another term next year and will concentrate instead on a bid for the vice-presidential nomination in 2008, a report last night said.

Sources tell NY1 News that Governor George Pataki expects to announce in the next few weeks he's not seeking a fourth term, and is instead deciding whether to run for president.

NY1's sources say Pataki realizes he's a longshot, but thinks he could be the GOP nominee for vice president in 2008.

Pataki has previously said he'll decide by June whether to run again for governor, and NY1's sources caution that in the event of a terrorist attack or other major event, the governor could still decide he wants to stay in Albany.

1. that miserable man a hear-beat from the presidency?

what a horrible thought. but i guess its a good thing for us that he won't be infecting albany anymore, and besides, with his popularity in the gutter the way it is what repuke would put him on their ticket. now maybe he'll go back to being the mayor of plattsburg (or whatever upstate city/town he ruled before fucking up the state...)

2. What a chump

Who announces that his true intention is land a VP spot 4 years before the next presidential election?

Spitzer has already done New York a tremendous favor by scaring this clown off the stage.
