Pataki In Lazio's Corner

[ccharles000]

New York has been known to elect Republicans. Remember George Pataki? GOP gubernatorial candidate Rick Lazio is sure hoping his state's voters remember.

On Wednesday, Pataki endorsed Lazio for governor -- a development that wouldn't be particularly noteworthy, except that some of Pataki's fellow Republicans have been thinking they'd prefer to put up a different candidate -- even if that candidate has to change parties.

The New York Times and the Albany Times Union reported today on efforts to woo a Lazio alternative.

In addition to the Pataki endorsement, Lazio's pushback against his doubters included the rollout of endorsements from former GOP Reps. Amo Houghton, Sherwood Boehlert and George Wortley.

1. Isn't Lazio the idiot that ran against Hillary in 2000?

I hope he runs, I don't think he would be a good candidate for them.
