Buffalo: Paterson Hospitalized After Fainting
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Lt. Gov. David A. Paterson was taken to a Buffalo hospital yesterday after apparently fainting on a flight from New York City to Buffalo, state officials said. Mr. Paterson, 53, was sitting with Gov. Eliot Spitzer when the governor noticed him nodding and then apparently faint about halfway through the 6 a.m. US Airways flight, said Christine Anderson, a spokeswoman for the governor. Mr. Paterson was awake and alert yesterday afternoon, but will remain at the hospital for a short time for observation, the governor’s office said. Mr. Paterson is a member of the board of the Achilles Track Club and completed the New York City Marathon in 1999.

Wow....I cant wait for the DJ / Isles scandal to rock this forum
Today's editorial in the Times hit the nail on the head. I didn't recall him going after prostitution rings as part of his shtick, but apparently he did. Even if I don't necessarily think that soliciting a prostitute is the worst thing one can do, although I know there will be those who disagree (and me being a male has to be taken into consideration), but in this case it is more complex than this.
The points the piece makes about how it isn't just damaging to him because Wall Street and the Republicans can now use this to try and undermine the needed reforms is the major reason why this is significant. He did do good work to fight Wall Street's "culture of greed" (which I believe was the phrase Spitzer used often), and address problems in government, so that does count, but with this it's just so disappointing.
It amazes me how much 'The Wire' is on point about the way our modern institutions seem to function to the detriment of human life.
Here's that Editorial:

Mr. Spitzer’s ‘Private Matter’
New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer could not have been more wrong in his brief public appearance after the world learned that he was suspected of patronizing a prostitution ring. He did not just betray his family in a private matter. He betrayed the public, and it is hard to see how he will recover from this mess and go on to lead the reformist agenda on which he was elected to office.
With his ashen-faced wife at his side, the governor apologized and said his behavior “violates my obligation to my family and violates my or any sense of right or wrong.” He was right about his violations, but he was, sadly, wrong when he asserted that politics is only about “big ideas” and not individuals. His short, arrogant statement simply was not enough, not from the Sheriff of Wall Street, not from the self-appointed Mr. Clean who went to Albany promising a new and better day.
It is likely that every aspect of Mr. Spitzer’s other life as Client 9 for the Emperor’s Club V.I.P. — as he has been identified by law enforcement officials — every text message and other secretive communication will be made public. Any politician would have a full-time job just dealing with such revelations. There have been elected officials, over the years, who have survived scandals of this sort. But for Mr. Spitzer, who runs a large and complex state, the burden is especially heavy to show that he has not lost the credibility to push for change, a sound budget and good government, as he promised so confidently a year ago.
While few clients of prostitutes face criminal charges, law-enforcement affidavits raise at least the possibility of criminal charges based on transporting a woman across state lines for prostitution. Mr. Spitzer’s own record of prosecuting such cases gives him scant breathing room. As state attorney general, he prosecuted prostitution rings with enthusiasm — pointing out that they are often involved in human trafficking, drug trafficking and money laundering. In 2004 on Staten Island, Mr. Spitzer was vehement in his outrage over 16 people arrested in a high-end prostitution ring.
A further tragedy here, beyond the personal one of the Spitzer family and the damage he has done to the reform cause, is that Mr. Spitzer’s targets are now relishing their tormentor’s torment. Those on Wall Street who fumed at having to make their world fairer for ordinary shareholders can now chortle with satisfaction in their private enclaves. For New York Republicans, who have blocked some of the most important reforms in Albany, it is hard to imagine the private glee — especially at a moment when they are fighting desperately to hold their majority in the State Senate.
Sadly, this was not the first time that Mr. Spitzer has been caught up in his own arrogance. For all his promise as governor, Mr. Spitzer’s first year was unnecessarily rocky and full of the kinds of mistakes that come as much from hubris as from being new on the job. After succeeding with a few reforms, the governor’s ill-fated attempts to smear his Republican opponent lost him months of progress. Only recently had he seemed to be tempering his abrasive style.
Mr. Spitzer did not seem to understand on Monday what he owed the public — a strong argument for why he should be trusted again. The longer he hesitates, it becomes a harder case to make.

if it was a minister, you would say they all are fake and never go inside a church again , even at someone's wedding.
how are you equating a politician to someone who's life revolves around a made up story from thousands of years ago that was created to keep the public masses in line.
Prez i'm inclined to agree with you. In ITALY, i hear its de riguer for a politician to have a Wife and a Mistress. I really hate how this country is all worried about how a man decides to bust a nut.
I don't know about 5G but definitely at least 2.
j/k you sick bastards.
All I know is that this whole thing the last couple days has been so depressing. This messes more things up than people realize.
That fuck'n idiot! I feel bad for his wife. She went from first lady of New York to nothing, just like that. It's not easy just letting 20 years of marraige go. I hope she's able to dump his ass.
Congrats to Patterson and best of luck to him.
Another pic of the chick.

for that much money she better be willing to run the UK bukkake train.
j/k you sick fuggers, i don't even know what that word means.
You should go to her MySpace site. She's trying to sell as much of her music as she can, while she's still hot and people are sticking up for her as if she were some kind of defensless gal. She goes on to tell this sad story about her life and says that if she can make it, then anyone can make it. The only difference is, not everyone can bend over and make 5 G's a shot, like she can.
The papers reported that her music sales have 'sky rocketed' since the story broke. What a society.
