Some rumormongering from The Citizen<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“… Assembly Minority Leader Brian Kolb<\/a> and Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro<\/a>, both of whom are exploring gubernatorial bids, are in discussions to form a Republican ticket to challenge Cuomo<\/a> …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From a purely 2A standpoint this is good as Kolb is a NRA Life member<\/a> and both have positive voting records on the issue.<\/p>\n

Possible downside is lack of name recognition, especially downstate where most of the population is, and ability to raise enough money.\u00a0 They don’t need to match Cuomo’s expected $30+ million, but will need $8-10 million to at least make it interesting.<\/p>\n
