"After leading four former Republican governors on a tour of ground zero, Gov. George E. Pataki said yesterday that he would soon announce whether he would run for president in 2008.
“I’m going to make a decision sometime early next year,” said Mr. Pataki, who is viewed in Republican circles as a long shot for the party’s nomination, but is nonetheless working to raise his national profile and play a role in one of several efforts to redefine the party."
