Eliot Spitzer to run for NY Governor

Marc Humbert has the story on the AP wires:

New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer, whose investigations of white-collar crime have shaken the nation's financial institutions, said Tuesday he will run for governor in 2006.

Long known to be interested in the job, it was the first time the high-profile attorney general has said he will definitely run.

I've always hoped for great things from this man, so this news makes me very happy. Spitzer is one of my favorite Democrats in the nation, and he has the fire and determination to win. What is more, he is very reform-minded, in the vein of previous New York Governors Theodore Roosevelt and Thomas Dewey (who was also state Attorney General), and both of those men went on to garner their party's Presidential nomination.
