With all due respect Gales, you're way off base. And wow.. getting your information from a high quality, unbiased news gathering source, eh?

Patterson turned it into a circus? Really? How did he do that? By having to react to the Caroline Kennedy interest in the job? That was Patterson's doing? What do you expect in the Post anyway? Are the comments coming from that laughable P.O.S. hack Frederic Dieker?

Gillibrand, who is the Congresswoman representing the district in which I live, happens to be an inspired choice. She's a seasoned and aggressive campaigner who unseated a Republican congressman when she initially won her seat, and endured a big-spending, mud-slinging GOP scumbag attack in her most recent re-election. She has high approval and likability ratings, and gives Patterson Upstate capital for his own down the road election bid. She is conservative by Northeastern Democrat standards, believing in gun-owner rights for example, but is highly-respected by consumer and human rights watchdogs.

Please spare us the John Birch rhetoric and Fox News pablum.
