1. Can't say as I blame him

He was fairly sane for a Republican. I know a lot of the Flying Monkey Brigade of the GOP didn't like him one bit and didn't mind showing it at election time.

2. Local news speculates

that he will run for vice president in '08. I kid you not, they feel that he is too liberal for a presidential run but his goal may be for the second slot.

3. Maybe he knows vice president hold the top job now.n/t

4. Politics1 lists seven potential Repub candidates

None of them have announced yet.

Michael Balboni (R) - State Sen., Ex-State Assemblyman & Attorney
Randy Daniels (R) - Secretary of State, SUNY Trustee, Ex-Businessman & Ex-Journalist
John Faso (R) - Ex-State Assembly Minority Leader, Attorney & '02 Nominee
Robert Gaffney (R/C) - Ex-Suffolk County Executive, Attorney & Ex-FBI Agent
Joel Giambra (R) - Erie County Executive
Tom Golisano (R) - Businessman, NHL Hockey Team Owner & Frequent Candidate
Pat Manning (R) - State Assemblyman

There's little, if any, certainty in the world of politics. But if Spitzer somehow loses, something will have gone very wrong.
