Anyone catch Pataki's speech on Cspan Road To the WH last weekend?
The asshole used parts of Kerry's campaign speeches. It was a direct ripoff at times.

Remember back during the primaries, Kerry came out with his proposal for a new 10 yr. plan to fully fund research for alternative fuels to reduce dependence on Mideast oil, ala Kennedy's space program - Set a goal and do everything that can be done by the nation to achieve it.

Pataki said the exact same thing last week for his presidential platform and even made the exact same reference to Kennedy, and he acted as if he came up with it himself.

It was as disgustingly smug of a display as I've ever seen.

all they know how to do is cheat/steal/lie.

That SOB! Bush has taken some of Kerry's plans as well. Is there anything he can do? Did he copywrite them? He and Edwards did write that book with their plans in it, did they copywrite that book?

6. I also wanted to add
if the same people are involved in the next republican administration they no way will go for that. Does Pitaki have any oil ties or anything like that?

4. I saw parts of it. He's a horrible candidate.
Almost any dem would kick his ass.

No wonder rethugs are considering Barbour.

Pataki was reading his speech from a text. Delivered poorly, still trying to take advantage of his 9/11 involvement. Shameful.

8. He's not running for NY Gov. again.
Mostly because his poll numbers in NY are in the tank.

In other words, he's toast, politically.
