But... but his re-election campaign was going so well!!
ReplyDeletewhat do you mean? There are a number of other Governors down there in the sewer with him. Like Gibbons, who is I think if Jeff Spicoli were real this is what he would have grown up to be. There is also Boss Hoggs down in Alabama (or is that Miss.) Haley Barber, although I don't know if we can call what he does "serving" unless you define that to himself and his cronies.
ReplyDeleteAnd, of course, we have Sanford. The thing with Paterson is he was not elected Governor, just Lt. Gov. so you can't really blame NY'ers.
I'm not blaming New Yorkers.
ReplyDeleteElizabeth, I am not saying you are, just that it isn't NY'ers fault he is Gov. it is Eliot's fault.
ReplyDeleteWhy can't we blame NYers? They elected the ticket with Spitzer and Patterson. Who else put Hooker Guy and his sidekick in power?
ReplyDeleteAs of, well, right now, Patterson is no longer running for re-election.
ReplyDeleteJennifer, the Times publishes rumor and unsupportable innuendo? You know this how?
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for your kind words. It makes all this worthwhile.
I am loath to delete comments, and I've been pretty lax about our expectations of civility around here. That said, we have way too few regular readers here to countenance any suggestion that any of them should die.
