My Man! Great New York Post Frontpage today. Obama annoints Cuomo while Paterson shrinks

New York Post ^

[dead]

This picture is a classic.

Obama's gives his dead-fish stamp of approval to uber-corrupt Andy Cuomo, while David "I'm not dumb! I'm smart!" Paterson smells the diss and shrinks by two feet.

Race-schmace - it's money that matters - and nobody is more corrupt than Andy, except maybe his dad.

Not Sharpton, not Jesse, not nobody is going to bring up the racial angle on the Obama stab in the back. Andy stole $56 billion (Billion with a B) from HUD years back and spread it around the hood.

Sorry David, can't do nuthin' for ya man. Eatin' wefare turkey out the can. Ya jumped outta the jelly into a jam!

The one thing they must guard against is Rudy getting to Albany and uncovering all the corruption that has been going on for years in new York.

It’s about Barry being scared of facing Gov. Rudy in 2012.

[ConservativeMan55]

This will do wonders for Patersons approval ratings lol!

[relictele]

Is Obama now a racist too?

[Miss Didi]

"... But most importantly, Obama realizes that the only thing that could stand between his own re-election in 2012 and a direct challenge from former mayor and potential Republican gubernatorial and presidential contender Rudy Giuliani -- the man who defeated New York City's first black mayor -- is Attorney General Cuomo, the state's most popular politician and one who unfailingly beats Giuliani in the polls.

The unelected Paterson, who polls show is easy prey to a Giuliani candidacy, is, of course, a very different story. (cont.)"

Dave's ejection is Andy's election

[reagan_fanatic]

Look closely at Obama’s face - I think he’s trying to mock Paterson ;)

[sbMKE]

Stand up David! Let’s hear it for Governor Paterson. Stand up, pal!

[italianquaker]

Black on black crime(sarcasm) can only hurt odumbos 96 pct approval rating with this group

[dead]

LOL!

"Oh look at me. Everybody else stand up! Stand up for David!"

[VRWCer]

He’s winking at Andy. What’s up with that?

[mel]

Zero is so gay

"It’s about Barry being scared of facing Gov. Rudy in 2012."

Rudy will never run for Pres again but I hope he runs for Gov.

Corruption going on for years in New York....

Before the brief reign of the prostitute patronizer and Paterson admin wasnt Republcan Pataki the governor for 8 years? New York state and city government is corrupt...period.

[dfwgator]

Obama’s white half is obviously racist.

[dead]

I think part of it is that Rudy as Gov of NY presents problems for Obama's reelection. But seriously, if Obama is sweating NY next time around, he's done.

Mostly, I think this is about getting Andy Cuomo a power position, because he's currently an under-utilized, completely corrupt, force that Team Obama can use.

There's a lot of treasure that needs looting and bodies that need burying in New York, and Andy's your man for both jobs. Paterson's a potted plant.

[raccoonradio]

Can you imagine if this were Massachusetts and Obama were to
“annoint” a white Democrat and shun the current black Dem gov, Deval Patrick? (Kinda doubt as he and the lowly-rated
Deval are friends...and there is probably no chance that Deval’s ratings would bring down the other Dems in the Commonwealth. Different situation.)

[Question_Assumptions]

Just wait for the Torricelli switcheroo in New Jesey when they swap out Corzine for Codey. Democrats don’t let anything stand between them and power.

[kempster]

I don’t diasgree. If I remember there is no love lost between Rudy and Pataki. I stand by my statement about the corruption. Nothing a former Prosecutor can’t handle.
