Giuliani and Tedisco on the same ticket?
First published: Tuesday, April 1, 2008

Tom Buchanan, Schenectady County Republican chairman, is excited about reports Rudy Giuliani is interested in being a candidate for governor.
     
He envisions the possibility of Jim Tedisco, Assembly minority leader, being Giuliani's lieutenant governor running mate.
"That would be a great combination -- I'm 100 percent for it," Buchanan said. "Even if Giuliani doesn't run, without question, Tedisco could head a gubernatorial ticket. "
Several months ago, Jasper Nolan, Saratoga County GOP chairman, said he would support a gubernatorial bid by Tedisco.
The 25-year assemblyman represents Saratoga Springs, five towns in Saratoga County and about half of Schenectady County.
Governor or lieutenant governor offices have not been held by a Capital Region resident since 1943.
Republican Tom Wallace of Schenectady, who died after just seven months in office, was lieutenant governor under Gov. Tom Dewey.
"Giuliani's name commands respect, and he has the ability to raise sufficient campaign funds," Buchanan said. "Tedisco has been a real conservative representative and a successful Assembly watchdog for many years."

We fall into the pattern of the French government politician acceptabilities and 'dislike' the French and yet scream at Hillary for staying in her marriage????? I dont get it...... So who will vote for Guiliani????------you got it,,,the next generation of voters,,,the youngest of the herd......
