Pataki Steps Out of Race...For The Time Being

New York Governor George Pataki has decided not to run for president. Last night at a private dinner in Manchester, Pataki told supporters that it was ok to endorse other candidates. However, Pataki did leave the door open for a possible future run. He told the group that "he’s going to let the dust settle and see where we are in a few months.” Alicia Preston, Pataki's PAC spokeswoman told The Union Leader that "he [Pataki] was considering the possibility of running for President and he still is. But right now he is focusing on policy rather than politics.”
