Colin Powell running for gov of NY?
check this out:
http://www.quinnipiac.edu/x14216.xml

Secretary of State Colin Powell beats Attorney General Eliot Spitzer 47 – 42 percent in an early look at the 2006 New York governor’s race, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.

Spitzer tops Republican Gov. George Pataki 50 – 38 percent if the two face off, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University poll finds.

In these early matchups, there is some shift of black and independent voters from Spitzer if he runs against Pataki, to Powell, if he faces Spitzer.

If Gov. Pataki decides to run for U.S. Senate in 2006, he would lose to incumbent Hillary Clinton 58 – 36 percent. Sen. Clinton holds off Powell by a narrow 49 – 44 percent margin.

2. I hope he tries
Regardless of polls, Spitzer would eat him in the end.

4. Do you think that Spitzer could still win?
We need to bring out Colin's lying to the U.N about WMD's!

5. Powell's not running for anything
He could've run for president and probably won years ago. Why would he run for a lesser post now?
