Kevin Costner? What?....

Anyway...It is farrrr too early to tell although right now I think it will probably be close. If Pataki wants to run for President he shouldn't run for another term...

Spitzer will win, Pataki's popularity really dropped off after he won his last re-election.  During the campaign stating that everything in the state was going well & than right after suddenly the state was in Crisis he put forth education cuts & tuition hikes

wtf?  Costner? 

Anyways, it will be very close, but I think Spitzer will win out in the end.  But two years out, who knows?

If Pataki wants to win the nomination he needs to run for a fourth term.

He's an old-schooler anyways. A three-term governor with no trophy prize acomplishment isn't worth flying.

Since Zogby is the only pollster talking about it...59% have a favorable opinion of Pataki, 56% have a favorable opinion of Spitzer.

Not bad considering that Pataki has much higher name recognition than Spitzer. 10 year governor vs. 6 year attorney general

Pataki would lose.  Pretty badly.

Of course, this is coming from someone who was badly surprised by the size of Pataki's win in '02.

Does it matter? He won, and Pataki clearly would've lost had he ran again, making your post entirely nonsensical.

Well, I'm kind of guessing in the dark here, but I think, if the election were held anytime after Monday, March 10th, Pataki wins 80 to 20%.

Pataki wasn't exactly a popular figure when he left office either...

Didn't suggest he was, just responding to the 80% suggestion.

Not even close. Spitzer still had >30% approval after this according to SUSA polls.

Which means voter turnout is pathetic, only party bases and people motivated strongly to vote against the other guy come out, and because of the party imbalance Spitzer comes much closer than he should.
