   All those yes are he ones wh will make a buck off his campaign.

   But you never know Arthur Finkelstein could pull the GOP Nomination out of his “HAT”, he needs to show that he still has the magic, after his abysmal showing with LazioStein in 2010.

   “You never know?” and…Finkelstein could pull the GOP nomination out of his hat?” Pataki is an obvious joke. I think Machiavelli, like an old and slow, overweight prizefighter, with delusions and memories of better days, climbs into the ring of opinion not realizing his days of glory (and cagy prognosticating) are ancient history.
