Hard Time Killing Floor Blues
From the New York Times’ wonderfully titled “Don’t Cry For Me, Stephen Minarik” post-mortem on the 2006 New York State GOP debacle, I found this amusing piece of insight from Joe Mondello (Minarik’s successor):
He (Mondello) said on WROW that Mr. Pataki had to know he was not a front runner, but that perhaps he thought he could get the nod if the ‘08 Republican primary got messy and there was “blood on the floor.â€
That’s an understatement. The thing better be a freaking slaughter house if Pataki has any chance of getting the Republican presidential nomination.
Here’s Jon Stewart’s take on “president Pataki” (from the Daily Politics). Sometimes the truth hurts.
