NY: How Long Will Paterson Last?

Uh – we’re not sure what to make of Albany politics. One thing’s for sure, we’re not sure if former Governor Spitzer and current Governor Paterson are huge Toby Keith fans or not (can you see Eliot Spitzer at a Toby Keith show?), and we’re not sure if they’re “talking bout hooking up or hanging out”, but we’re pretty sure they were “just talking about tonight.”

By now, four days into Governor David Paterson’s reign, one thing is clear: He never thought he was actually going to be governor. The loosey-goosey (and juicy!) way he’s blended his personal and professional affairs don’t reflect the kind of care and caution that most people who expect close scrutiny would have used. But Paterson is fully aware of that and is doing the best he can with the situation as it is. Democrats can only hope that he doesn’t have any more big revelations, because if this goes on, Albany Republicans are going to start actively questioning his ethical authority.

Finally – does anybody want to place any bets on who the next New York Governor is going to be?
