Fitting: Our State is Broke and So Is Our Governor

Not that Andrew Cuomo is anybody's idea of a paragon of anything other than political connectedness and survivalism, but in a few short days new York will be free of an ongoing, inexplicable handicap, its flabbergastingly floundering and sleazy Governor David Patterson. This guy has made most New Yorkers pine for Eliot Spitzer, hookers and all. How a state as big and important as New York could entrust its executive office to such a worthless boob is a question for the ages. (A question, but not THE question...you know what that is.)
