Pataki V.S. Spitzer

Ding Ding! (Let the fight begin). Attorney General, Elliot Spitzer believes that Pataki is trying to pull a fast one with his proposed tax credit for underperforming school districts.Spizer believes that some of these credits will be used for private schools and is really a disguized voucher program ( oh no!).

“I think there will be serious constitutional issues if they are used for parochial schools,” said Spitzer, the only announced Democratic candidate for governor.

The fight begins:

“Eliot Spitzer doesn't seem to have any problem with wealthy people being able to have school choice,” Faso said. “It's constitutional because the credit doesn't go to the school ... I think that tax credits have been upheld and are constitutional in other states.


Could it be that Elliot Spitzer is show boating for some free press?
