Republican gubernatorial candidate Carl Paladino and Post State Editor Fredric U. Dicker last night got into an angry confrontation -- during which Paladino threatened, "I'll take you out."
It started when Dicker asked Paladino if he had any proof of his shocking allegation that Democratic rival Andrew Cuomo cheated on his former wife during their marriage.
"What evidence do you have for something most people would consider a smear?" Dicker asked.

Paladino is unquestionably the best prospect NY has for any kind of prosperity or fiscal integrity.
Which is what Paladino should be focusing on, rather than reminding the electorate of his complete lack of personal integrity.
Who are you ...another D'RAT troll?
Nope. Can't stand Lazio. Perennial candidate, no vision, deservedly thrashed by Paladino.
The candidate for governor and journalist are shown having a confrontation over Dicker allegedly sending a photographer to follow around the 10-year-old daughter Paladino fathered outside his marriage. The Buffalo businessman called Dicker a stalking horse for his Democratic gubernatorial opponent, Andrew Cuomo.

Fred Dicker is by far the most respected and influential political reporter in Albany and possibly NY State. He is somewhat left leaning but generally fair, balanced and composed. Paladino likely hurt himself badly by going ape against Dicker.
Paladino is the RESET button for NYState gov’t.
Not true. I don’t think people here would advocate picking on the little child.
We may have cheered the cameras on the culprits, but not the baby.
We saw the Edwards baby because the Enquirer published them.
No person on our side of the aisle did that to Edwards.
This was done to Pallidino’s child so the reporter could trash Pallidino and embarrass his child to influence an election. It was despicable.
This so called journolist has never posted a negative piece about Pallidino’s opposition.
Either you are a Cuomo supporter or you don’t know what you are talking about. First, who do you think leaked it about Palladino’s affair 10 years ago that produced a daughter? That’s right, Cuomo’s side. So if Carl has info on Cuomo’s infidelities in his marriage, what’s good for the goose is good for the gander. Go get him Carl. As to this newsman, it was his paper that sent out reporters and a cameraman to try to interview the mother of the ten year old whom Palladino had an affair with long ago, and tried to take pics of the kid. The cameraman allegedly came up to the window of the house and scared the heck out of the kid. So Carl is real po’d about this, and then this reporter from that paper gets up in Carl’s face at an event, a reporter who obviously is a Cuomo supporter himself as one can tell by the questions posed, and Carl lets him have it. Go Carl!
You have to see the confrontation to see just how this reporter instigated the whole incident, and this shyster reporter is now making the rounds of the talk shows this morning, getting his 15 minutes of fame. I love Palladino, he is just the kind of personality to ride heard on New York, he’s a fighter like his next door neighbor Chris Christie, and I hope he beats the pants off of Cuomo.
DITTOS!
Where do you get that? That Palladino because he's not "slick" like your boy Cuomo?
LOL I hope you never end up in Palladino's face you may eat that slur... That's the kind of guy Palladino is and he devours simpleton bushwackers like you.
He protected his 10 year old daughter from a liberal rag publication because he has honor guys like you lack.
This year the lesser of two evils approach seems to be working in the Republican’s favor.
A guy who cheats on his wife is, by definition, a dirtbag.
If his own wife cannot trust him, then no one can.
John Edwards daughter was news be cause the creep tried to hide it...
Paladino hid his illegitmate daughter from his family for years.
There isn't a dime's worth of difference on a personal level between the Silky Pony and this guy. He should drop the attitude immediately and get down to business.
Who are you ...another D'RAT troll?
The preferred accusation of posters who have completely run out of rational arguments. Congratulations.
Do you live in NY?
I think they were looking for the mother, not the child.
Go back and reread the posts.
Thank you for that clear and precise explanation. I was getting confused there for awhile. I wish there was a video we could look at.
I don’t know which one is correct...I do know on the Imus show this morning Dicker denied having anything to do with it!!!

Palladino provided well for his daughter and he never hid anything. You seem to know quite a bit about nothing but spout anything that comes to your "dirtbag" mind. Your buddy Cuomo, with his track record probably would have paid for a "Career Saving" abortion... with campaign funds...
Talk is cheap troll and you're good at the sewer art of cheap unsubstantiated talk.
