Schumer Won't Run for N.Y. Governor
New York Senator Charles Schumer announced today he will not run for Governor in 2006. That leaves the way clear for New York Attorney General Elliott Spitzer to run on the Democratic ticket. Spitzer has long been considered a favorite of Dems for the race.
Schumer will head up the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee through 2006. He also has been given a seat on the Senate's Finance Committee, considered one of the most powerful in Congress.
