Last night, the NY Republican State Committee's dinner featured keynote speaker Newt Gingrich. That's right, the former Speaker of the House wasn't just in town for tea bagging! PolitickerNY reports that Gingrich was hyping up a Republican dream team for 2010: "“I think if we had Mayor Giuliani for governor, and we had Governor Pataki as senator, we would be in a large step towards the tidal wave to make 2010 comparable to 1994. And I think that should be our goal." Gingrich also believes the state GOP will be facing Andrew Cuomo in 2010, "So, you got to design a campaign that beats Cuomo, because the fact is, Democrats aren’t insane. When a member of the Democratic Party becomes too weak to reelect, they tend to cannibalize them before we get to them."

I love it when Republicans compare their goal of coming into power to a massive destructive force that can kill tens of thousands of people.
Newt knows all about parties cannibalizing their own.
Pataki as Senator? His name has been in the news for the first time in years b/c he is greatly responsible for the State's and MTA's current deficits.
Giules for Governor? I'd like to think that most people are tired of his "look at me, I'm hero...9/11!" schtick. (then again, you never know how upstate NYers are thinking).
Further, adultery loving Newt acts as if Congress was noble and insightful in 1994. I would say that rejecting health care reform and deregulating Wall Street came back to haunt us. Just a little.
