ELEX FUNDS FOR GAL WHO SAYS: I NEVER HELPED HIM Gov. Paterson's campaign-finance reports show he paid $1,000 to a woman who says she barely knows him, didn't work for him and never received money..... Luisa Vizcarrondo, 49, was listed as "staff" on Paterson's campaign for Senate...payment was made June 25, 2002....Vizcarrondo said she had never worked for the Democratic pol... The East Orange address Paterson listed for her is a prior address property records show. ...she said she hardly knew Paterson. Paterson's spokesman yesterday also denied a relationship. "She was someone who worked for the campaign"........ performed "writing and other tasks for the campaign." He did not clarify exactly what the writings or tasks were or how long she was employed.
Paterson's campaign counsel and treasurer have been poring over his records since the new governor admitted to several extramarital affairs..... Henry Berger, the Paterson campaign's chief counsel, will hold a briefing for reporters today. ........ campaign records found Paterson's campaign seemingly paid for more than five dozen hotel stays since 1999......and spent thousands of dollars on meals and flowers.

Plus the campaign cur a check for $1000 to someone who never worked for him and doesn't even know the governor? That sounds an awful lot like money laundering. How many other campaign checks are made out to phantom employees?
EXCERPT NY DAILY NEWS 3/20/08 : In July 2002, Paterson's campaign paid Kirton $500 for "professional services." Yesterday, Paterson said he was reimbursing her for a donation she'd made on his behalf to Carl McCall, the Democratic candidate for governor that year. "She went to a fund-raiser that I couldn't go to. She paid to get in. And we paid back for it," he said.
There's no record of a Kirton donation to McCall. .....it's illegal to make a so-called "pass-through" political donation on behalf of another because it masks the identity of the donor.
The News also found Paterson's campaign paid a $1,400 American Express bill dated March 30, 2004, for "constituent services." On June 3, 2004, Paterson reimbursed the campaign.
Somebody asked if Kirton's $150K salary on Paterson's staff makes her a high class call girl ala the Emperors VIP Club or just a garden variety hooker? ANSWER That all depends on how much of her "salary" she has to kickback to Patterson (snicker).
Joseph Bruno, 56th Gov of Gnu Yak, until his skeletons are discovered.
Well, if you keep going, the next Gov to serve a full term will be currently in the Holy Orders. That’s the way it is in Albany. Why do you think a part-time legislature works full time?
I see one of the bills was from a Super 8 Motel.
Man, he and his really had class (/sarc).
-——L U V - G U V-——
I’m enjoying this to no end.
LOL!
But did he talk about pubic hairs on coke cans at lunch? /sarcasm
Maybe Hillary can be governor of NY since her Presidential campaign is tanking.
I don’t think anybody is looking for moral perfection in their governor, but it would be nice to have somebody who wasn’t expecting the taxpayers or contributors to fund his quickies at the Super8. Patterson is your typical corrupt low-level pol who regards public monies as his slush fund and public power as his ticket to goodies unlimited. Spitzer was the same, but simply on a more sophisticated level, shall we say.
New York State has a problem.
Yeah-—LOL.
Why did he pay $4300 for a single roll in the hay?
“Kristen” took one look at “George Fox” and said “I wouldn’t sleep with you if you were the governor of New York-—so you better pay up plenty, buster.”
O-o-o-o-—you bad-—but very funny.
Love, love, love it. ROTFL.
Nothing will happen to Paterson-he has a double get out of jail card.
Lots of material here for a screen play or maybe foreplay...
My goodness my bride says that wasn’t a nice thing to say... but funny anyway.
I have no idea what is next from my state, the state who elected hillary to the senate.........how much lower can things get?
Shelly Silver can take over and then we are sunk....(or at least further down the Susquehanna....)
the dang Susquehanna is already near flood stages.....
