Ha ha, oh look, it's the David Paterson story in the New York Times! You might have heard such a thing was maybe coming?

I'm halfway through it, realizing that this is what it was all about. So it's really all about Paterson having a low grade Reggie Love?
Well, I should say a drug using/dealing, woman beating, Reggie Love. I'll just go ahead and finish the article already…
Oh no, several anonymous former staffers think that Paterson's wing men "were simply not best equipped to help him tackle the multiple challenges facing him." !!
And isn't THAT a fascinating construction. Yes.
This is serious! A wingman who can't fend off a cockblock is simply a waste of taxpayers' money!
And…it's not that exciting. Or is it? Am I missing something?
Do you ever feel like you've been cheated? /closes tab
The lawyers didn't go for recasting Paterson as Hedley Lamarr?
Ummmm…#cuomofail?
Well worth the wait.
OMG- there's a ruffian in Albany! With access to the Governor, and an irregular "dating" life! Ninety-nine problems the NYT dug up, and mostly bitches!
So this is the big scandal we've been waiting so long to hear about. Ok, we have to call it "something-gate" now. But what-gate?
Let's see … The governor's go-to guy, a young black man, took drugs as a teenager. And some staffers complain that he's underqualified, and was promoted too quickly. So it's … it's …
I know! It's uppity-aide-gate!
I thought your "something-gate" was pretty good.
Or, MisterUppityAide-gate?
This is going to be BIG
All the Boos that's fit to print.
Imma go with "tl;dr".
I guess I am missing something because… I don't see the big deal?
What the Times is only hinting at is that David Paterson has a secret life where he's a lobbyist for telecommunications companies and he sleeps with John McCain.
the souffle always looks biggest when it's in the oven. Thanks, Walter!
I haven't read the article, but this comment thread is a true delight.
second that I'm not giving any page views to nyt on this bullshit.
Proves again why you East Coasts deserve "Elite Status":
New York: Lt. Gov. Candidate has people for knocking around women;
Illinois: Lt. Gov. Candidate has to handle it himself.
def don't give nyt any page views for this. i also got half way through it, still waiting for the 'news' part…. i give up. nyt is worse than the village voice now.
So Patterson is guilty of having an aide who behaves like a Kennedy. I'm thisclose to actually believing Patterson's conspiracies and accusing the Times of having a race-based vendetta.
