"In the end, Mr. Paterson selected Ms. Gillibrand anyway, infuriating White House officials and Democratic leaders in Washington. Making matters worse, the governor also publicly snubbed Caroline Kennedy, a close personal friend and ally of Mr. Obama’s, who announced in December her wish to be chosen as Mrs. Clinton’s replacement, but then withdrew her name from consideration in January, citing personal reasons."

Well the obvious has finally been made clear, Obama has personally asked Governor Paterson to get out and not to run for re-election. This is what he gets for not obeying the Kennedy clan's wish to anoint Caroline Kennedy to the U.S Senate position. Obama followed Ted Kennedy's order to get Hillary Clinton out by appointing her SoS just so Caroline can have her seat, only to be foiled by Governor Paterson, the first black NY Governor. Doesn't Governor Patterson know that his kind is indebted to the Kennedies? And that the Kennedies are entitled to have his full loyalty? Obama certainly does.
As much I would like to call Paterson's critics racists, I know in this case that can't be true because his critics are Democrats. And it's totally inexcusable they he defied a direct order from uncle Teddy Kennedy. Sorry Governor Paterson, but looks like you're on your own.
