Rudy Giuliani is headlining his second New York Republican fundraiser in two weeks as a poll shows he would beat Democratic incumbent Gov. David Paterson in an election.
Although many New York Republicans are pushing the former New York City mayor to consider a run for governor in 2010, Giuliani hasn’t committed.
On Monday he was in Albany for the annual Lincoln-Reagan Day Dinner. Last week he was the big draw at the state Republican committee’s annual dinner. Both have been must-attend events for past GOP governors.
A Siena College poll on Monday finds Giuliani would beat Paterson 56 percent to 29 percent in a matchup.
The latest Siena poll surveyed 682 registered voters from Monday through Wednesday last week. It has margin of error of nearly 4 percentage points.

Unfortunate that Giuliani’s bad strategy blew his presidential run. He IS the best! The only reason I would hesitate in wanting him to run for governor, is that by 2012 obama wont be able to get elected dog-catcher and i’d love to see Giuliani run again for president(with a much better campaign manager obviously!)
Rudy would be great if he gets it right this time. But do not count out Obama. He may get results.
