ALBANY -- Gov. Paterson gets more grim political news today, as another statewide poll shows Attorney General Andrew Cuomo trouncing him by 4 to 1 in a hypothetical primary match next year.

Democrats, by nearly 2 to 1, said that New York's accidental governor doesn't deserve to be elected on his own...

Agreed. He has been a great governor. No debt, not defecit, no crime.

It’s a frickin’ strawberry forest. Everybody eats cake.

At least, that is what the Governor is told.

The gov was supposed to be a token symbol: black and blind, but with no actual power. Then, all of a sudden he was promoted from the second spot to the first, and things started going downhill for the Dems’ popularity in the state.

Never mind. Paterson is just an incompetent idiot. If Cuomo gets in, he’ll bring big-time corruption back into New York, just like his father. He hasn’t had such a good time since he was Head of HUD and ripping off billions.

He was LT. Gov in the Dem Machine.

Next in line when Spitzer resigned.

Its a shame if Paterson is not the candidate....he is easily beatable by a Republican candidate in the general election.

( well not a Republican...a Rino...........a RINO being the best we can ask for here in the peoples republic of NY)

Why would New York want either one of these POSs in office? Neither one cares about New York or its people; only themselves.

The mind less masses that would vote for Charlie Manson if he ran as a Dem, will vote for Cuomo. They will justify it as his Dad was a great Gov. so his son should be as well. Except his Dad really sucked as Gov.. Even though he is a RINO, Guiliani would still be way better then any Dem that is running in this state. Sad but true. Just like this clown Schumer. Now he is grandstanding about the Lockerbie deal. You want to stop terrorism? Just have the Terrorist stand between Schumer and a Camera. He would take them out like Godzilla does to Tokyo.

Good one about Schummer and so true. I understand your dilema. We have the same thing in Texas. With Mr. GoodHair and Slick Boots Perry or Kay Bailey Hutchinson who everyone knows would send us down the toilet.

Once in a rare while, Saturday Night Live nails it... as they do with their recurrent (and very funny) Governor Patterson character:

Continuing proof of why Upstate needs its own state.
