poll: Spitzer would massacre Pataki in '06 match-up

[WI_DEM]

Atty. Gen Eliot Spitzer would defeat GOP Gov. Pataki by 53-30 percent in a 2006 test match-up.

In other good news, Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney who has been campaigning for '08 may find his '08 chances go down the drain if he is defeated for re-election in '06. Democratic front-runner Tom Reiley would defeat Mitt 49-40 percent.

I honestly think our best '06 chances will be picking up several key governorships.

3. Spitzer is Going To Be An AWESOME GOVERNOR And Dems Can Take the Senate!

If we get the Gov. and take State Senate, NY should gerrymander and shove a few more Dem congressmen down the Repubs throats!

4. Great

It's more than time to get rid of Pataki. For the life of me I still can't understand how he got in, in the first place and for 3 terms! He has mismanaged the state budget and finances atrociously, for starters. Then there is the as kissing he's done to ***H. A fatlot of good it did him.

5. Spitzer is going to be a great governor

It just occurred to me that we are going to have a Senate race and a Governors race at the same time in NY - I'm not sure I'm going to want to turn on my television.

I'm curious as to how Hillary is going to answer the question "Do you plan on serving out your entire term?" The answer could cause her some problems in a close race.

6. And that is why I can't wait for 2006...

As a New Yorker, and a Democrat...I will be gloating so much when Pataki is beaten by Spitzer...I personally can't stand Pataki and how people refer to him as being pro-education, yeah he's really pro-education, thats why he trys to cut funding for programs that will help those with low incomes afford college at public state universities, like the one I attend.

7. WOW!! Some Good News!

Pastey Pataki ALWAYS turned me off when he talked. I can't put my finger on it, but he just didn't do it for me, even though he's not as conservative as the rest of the bunch. Hopefully Guilliani will fade with him!

I sure hope he gets his ass KICKED!
