Pataki Gets A Website. Sort Of. (Update)

Here, via Azi Paybarah, is a screen shot from what appears to be a password-protected campaign-website-in-waiting for former Gov. George Pataki.

Pataki is rumored to make some sort of announcement later this week regarding his presidential ambitiouos. Fueling these rumors his is announced trip to Polk County, Iowa.

As Azi notes, the website includes rollover bars for subjects on Pataki’s record, including “K-12 education”, “welfare and “taxes” along with “national security.”

It appears that after the screenshot was taken, the campaign logo and other information was quickly removed from the public view of the site.

Updated: David Catalfamo emails this response to inquiries about the site, saying it will be formally launched only if the former governor decides to run.

Can’t run a campaign without a website — the hosting company apparently made a mistake and has prematurely made it searchable. The site is still in development and will only be launched if the Governor decides to get in the race.

If anything, this shows that Pataki’s people are indeed gearing up for a race and are putting the infrastructure in place should he run.

HaHaHaHaHaHa-
All the old hacks are lining up to help Elmer in his big run.
Problem is, they likely don’t recall that they essentially closed down government for 10 years and have no accomplishments for the roll bar to roll over.
If anything does appear there eventually, it will be fabricated pablem.
Paturkey and his crew did absolutely nothing but make moves to line their pockets when the end came.
Except for some that weren’t close enough to the top, or didn’t attend all the prayer meals hosted by Libby- many of them found ratholes that they are still hiding in after Spitz self-destructed, Davey couldn’t find because he was too busy defending his own lapses, and the Good Governor seems disinterested in dislodging.

To Pataki’s webmaster: Remember to put up a how he tackled the state debt by increasing it while spending to unprecedented levels, how he filled public service positions with self-serving cronies who lived of the public dime and how he speaks for big business, and only big business at all others’ expense (unless he is bought off by a large labor political contribution!).

Dicker is right about one thing — Pataki is a moocher. I guess he needs a refill on his free meals and a little free travel and this and that.

Elmer won’t get much moola, but he’s not too proud to beg. He sure and heck won’t seriously campaign. His chance of becoming president is ZERO.

Cue up the video of Cab Calloway singing “Minnie the Moocher.” It’s a jazz classic.
