Andrew Cuomo (D) "is ready to run for governor"

By GottaLaff

My cat could beat Paterson, based on what I've been reading:

The New York Daily News reports Andrew Cuomo (D) "is ready to run for governor" and will take on Gov. David Paterson (D) in the Democratic primary.

Said a source: "He will make an announcement at the end of March. And what he will say is that he intends to run for governor. ... He thinks there are a lot of problems in the state and he thinks he can help solve them."

Meow.

In the latest polls, Cuomo has a 64% job approval rating compared with Paterson's 31%. Cuomo also has $16 million in his war chest, while the governor has just $3 million.

In other news, Vice President Biden's son Beau will not make a run for U.S. Senate.
