Loving the Gov

We don't delve into politics much around here, there's no need to alienate half of our 16 readers. However, the clip below appeared on the Albany Times Union's Capitol Confidential blog and it was too good not to share.

The video is from New York Governor David Paterson's campaign web site and includes endorsements from a plethora of musicians, athletes, and New York State politicians. That's not really a big deal, but it should be noted that Paterson has a near record low approval rating of 27% which is tied with California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger for the lowest in the country. So I guess you could say these guys are rallying to support an underdog. Paterson's numbers are so bad that if he were a baseball team, he'd be the Washington Nationals.

For Syracuse fans, Carmelo Anthony makes an appearance at the 1:20 second mark.
