Lazio to run for NY governor
Business Review ^ | 09/15/09

Posted on 09/15/2009 12:28:23 PM PDT by freespirited

Former U.S. Congressman Rick Lazio said today that will run for governor of New York.

Lazio, a Republican, will make a formal announcement on Sept. 21 in Albany. He will then spend the week traveling around the state, meeting with voters.

Lazio, 51, served part of Long Island in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1993-2001. In 2000, he unsuccessfully challenged Democrat Hillary Clinton in the race to fill one of the state’s two U.S. Senate seats.

Lazio is currently a managing director at J.P. Morgan Chase (NYSE: JPM), focusing on client relations and public policy issues. He lives downstate.

Lazio and Gov. David Paterson, a Democrat, are the only people at this point who have announced their intention to run for governor. The election will be held in November 2010.

A fancy name for a lobbyist? The guy has not held public office for 9 years and he wants to run for Governer. Pathetic.

Lazio is the perpetual pathetic loser of a candidate the Republicans run all the time.

Why doesn’t Loozio simply run for his old congressional seat. Heck, maybe Tom Downey will cross the aisle to endorse him.
