David Paterson

From the NYTimes:

But Mr. Paterson also offered some hope. Again referring to his blindness, he said, “I know a little bit about finding one’s way through the dark.” He mentioned that he was born in Brooklyn and educated on Long Island and had lived in Harlem most of his life.

At 1:37 p.m., he declared, “Let me reintroduce myself: I am David Paterson and I am the governor of New York State!” Again, the crowd gave a standing ovation.

Perhaps this is the gift Eliot Spitzer has given us, accidentally....
