ALBANY, N.Y. A published report says that years after Gov. David Paterson said he ended an affair with a state employee, he traveled with her to South Carolina while working on Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential campaign.
The Times Union of Albany says he billed the state for the trip.
Paterson spokesman Errol Cockfield didn't immediately respond to a request for comment today. He told the newspaper he couldn't explain why records show Paterson and the $151,000-a-year employee were at the same inn.

“He told the newspaper he couldn’t explain why records show Paterson and the $151,000-a-year employee were at the same inn.”
That’s funny, because I can explain and I don’t even know these people.
I’ne read 3 stories about the Detroit mayor. not a single mention of his party affiliation.
Did they mention he was a coke head as well.
Okay, so who’s on deck?

As long as there is a picture of him a (D) behind the name is not needed!
All the money these guys have came from the state. They’ve never worked a blessed day in their lives.
Notice though that no one is demanding his resignation.
Bump and Ping
“They forgot the (D) next to his name.....”
First paragraph says he was working on the Clinton campaign. Sort of gives you a clue.
So the (D) is surplusage, I guess.
You know... If you go down the list of the most 'honorable' black leaders, you will find this 'kind of thing' is rather common... Not to mention the FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT!... Bubba himself... loved and adored by them.
It’s probably enough that they state that he is a New York State elected official. Ah, New York - the gift that keeps on giving.
Spitzer’s money came from his billionaire dad.
If this Governor thing doesn’t work out,he can always be
a daytime talk show host.
...while working on Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential campaign....he billed the state for the trip.
And why should the NY state taxpayers have to pay this guy while he's working for somebody else? Forget who he may or may not have slept with.
Marion Barry (Washington), Kwame Kilpatrick (Detroit) and Sharpe James (Newark, NJ) are three who immediately come to mind.
Sigh.
Waiting for the resignation press conference................
