The thunderous applause was still ringing in his ears when the state's new governor, David Paterson, told the Daily News that he and his wife had extramarital affairs.

In a stunning revelation, both Paterson, 53, and his wife, Michelle, 46, acknowledged in a joint interview they each had intimate relationships with others during a rocky period in their marriage several years ago.

In the course of several interviews in the past few days, Paterson said he maintained a relationship for two or three years with "a woman other than my wife," beginning in 1999.

I can understand him turning a blind eye to her indiscretions, but her? Go figure.

Big deal. He and his wife were having problems. There’s no indication that he broke the law or used tax money and he admitted it.

I’m not defending adultery, and this guy may be a lib, but I have to give him props for candor.

Not too sure if its adultery if his wife knew about it, but I agree, it is good that he fessed up before another scandal rocked NY.

Compared to the Emperors Club VIP, this seems somewhat anti-climactic. I think by getting it out in the open on his first day in office he has effectively diffused the issue.

We should impeach every public office holder who has ever had an extramarital affair.

Jimmy Carter lusted after women, which is cheaper than actual consumation.
