Speaking of George Pataki, he is pretty moderate and sane. His low standing on polls is due to him not really standing out in terms of personality. His resume is pretty sound as well, a three term Republican governor in a blue state like New York. A state that is the third largest economy after California and Texas. Ideally Pataki should be at or near the top. Conservative on the economy and moderate socially, he is the ideal type to go and possibly beat the Democrats in Nov 2016.
Yeah, and he’s probably going to take it out on you guys. My sympathies…although as a diehard Vikings fan part of me thinks you deserve it just for being Packer backers.
Oh we deserve it. I voted for this bastard the first time around, so I have no one to blame but myself.
The amazing thing to me, obvious to you since you’re a Minnesotan, is that we have 2 governors that have taken exactly opposite paths,. Yours is working much better, but ours was at one point considered a serious contender for President!:smack:
Dayton really does deserve more attention, along with the now-blue Minnesota Legislature, for running a blue-state laboratory that is showing great results for progressive programs. I suppose he figured it was a bad year to run against Hillary (though she’s looking weaker all the time), but he’ll be closer to 80 than 70 by the next time he is likely to have a chance, so…oh well.
