UTUSN (1000+ posts) Fri Feb-26-10 10:26 AMResponse to Original message 3. Will SNL dare do their PATERSON standing nose-length away while his security dude assaults a woman, chases her. As they did with P. bumping into the cameras, this would entail his bumping into the assault and not knowing anything about it.
Let's remember something--the Obamessiah is rumored to have picked Andrew Cuomo to run for Governor here. We know what the Obamessiah's record is in these things.
Who's the possible Republican contenders?There's a guy from long ago I always liked, Lew Lehrman; a great guy.Is he still around?
Wouldn't that be a kick in the pants! Didn't Giuliani say somethin' about running for Governor?
Rick is not polling well, however. I wish Rudy would run, he knows how to manage shit. But, yeah, he seems to be enjoying what he's doing, and making a pile of money doing it. I don't know what to think.
