it gets interesting. It's possible that Paterson may have used "state" or "campaign" money to pay for a hotel stay in 2001 (from the NY Daily News article):

Records show that in September 2001, then-Sen. Paterson's campaign spent $456.46 for two nights at what was then called the Quality Hotel at 215 W. 94th St.

One check was dated Sept. 10 — the day before the 9/11 attacks — and the other Sept. 24. Both are listed as "office" expenses.

Having an affair is not a political issue. Doing so on the public dime is.
Unfortunately, the NY GOP is in no position to capitalize on this given Dennis Gallagher's plea deal. (Rape trumps fiscal impropriety.)
