In some ways, you gotta feel sorry for Governor Paterson. He inherits the office because of a horn-dog, he walks into a budget nightmare, and the state senate turns into a game of Pong.
Now, just to kick the man when he’s down, THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES IS TELLING HIM TO HANG IT UP.
Yeah, that’s when you know things are really, really bad. The White House is pressuring Paterson to drop out of the race for next year’s election. Leaders of his own party in the state have already dropped not-so-subtle hints to Paterson. They’ve pointed out things like his incredibly low approval ratings, and of course their main concern…he’ll drag every other Democrat down with him.
So far, Paterson says he’s staying in the race. Stay tuned.
Oh and by the way, President Obama will be in Albany today. How’s that for timing? I can’t wait to see those photo ops.
