Report: Pataki considering a '10 Senate Run

According to the Associated Press, the GOP has approached former New York Governor George Pataki with the idea of running against the winner of the Democratic primary (if there is a primary) in 2010.

The head of the National Republican Senatorial Committee approached former Gov. George Pataki this week about running for the U.S. Senate in 2010, according to a person who spoke to Pataki about the private meeting.

The person confirmed Tuesday's meeting in New York City between Pataki and Sen. John Cornyn, a Texas Republican who heads the party's national senate campaign committee. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because he isn't authorized to comment.

It's obvious that the GOP doesn't have much faith in Rep. Peter King, but I don't think we have much to worry about, anyway. Remember, Pataki left office with a 30 percent approval rating. I think that the Democrats can run a corpse against George "Milquetoast" Pataki and win.
