Well, if New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo is the Democrat nominee for Governor, Rudy would have an easier time defeating appointed Democrat Senator Kristen Gillibrand.

Let’s look at the poll numbers:

If David Paterson runs for Governor in 2010, would you vote to elect him or would you prefer someone else?
14% Elect, 71% Prefer someone else

2010 Governor: Democratic Primary
66% Cuomo, 20% Paterson (chart)

2010 Governor: General Election
Paterson 39%, Lazio 35% (chart)
Giuliani 52%, Paterson 35% (chart)
Cuomo 52%, Giuliani 39% (chart)
Cuomo 64%, Lazio 18% (chart)

And for the U.S. Senate:

2010 Senate: General Election (trends)
46% Giuliani, 38% Gillibrand

I don’t know if Rudy would be interested in a non-executive position and it is rumored that former GOP New York Governor George Pataki is considering running for the Senate.

If the Democrats continue to fade, the GOP could get a two’fer here. But, the stars must align perfectly.

Stay tuned……

Is trouble on the horizon for “The One?”

Obama’s current approval rating is 52 per cent. Look at the other Presidents at this time of their administrations.

• George W. Bush -76%
• Bill Clinton – 50%
• George H.W. Bush – 70%
• Ronald Reagan – 52%
• Jimmy Carter – 57%
• Richard Nixon – 59%
• John Kennedy – 79%
• Dwight Eisenhower – 61%

This is NOT a good start and Obama has been sinking in the polls as of late due to his push for Obamacare and the poor economy.

The Republican Party is licking its chops for 2010.
