Carl Paladino gathered 28,000+ signatures which, assuming they withstand the inevitable court challenges, is enough to put him on the GOP primary ballot against Rick Lazio.

All five Democrat candidates for state AG have plenty of cash on hand which should ensure a nasty primary where they try to kill each other off. If Eric Schneiderman goes down in the fight I’ll be happy.
