O.K. so I'm well know for not paying attention.
I just realized that Dave Patterson is the Governor of New York.
So how did a redneck from Alabama become NY's current Gov?

    Dave Patterson was actually born in Brooklyn, NY. When Spitzer resigned after a prostitution scandal, it seems New Yorkers wanted a blind governor to reduce all those distractions that come with the job.

      Paul I live in NY.
      So far he seems to be one of the better governor's we've had in a long time.

        I don't know about that but he's got the best sense of humor I've seen on a politician in a long time. That's a good sign, when someone can laugh at himself.

          OMG -- please tell me this is a different Dave. Please. I don't want anyone legislating outhouses - or roadkill. I'm scared. DAVE - get in here and tell us it's your other brother Dave and not you. Please.

            Sal - You know how Dave thinks. Why limit those luscious road-kill recipes of
            his to the South. People in NY need food, too.

            I'm just amazed that Alabama was willing to share our Dave with that Yankee state.
