And like that, Paterson unconstitutionally appoints a Lieutenant Governor and within hours, Pedro Espada sits with Dems in exchange for a leadership position. And the Dems sit down to conduct business...then realize they are one short of a quorum since the Republicans were boycotting the session and one Dem was out for a medical emergency. Oy.
So we ended up with one month of time wasted, millions of dollars and a hiring freeze in NYC, but Pedro Espada gets to be leader...until he gets booted out of office by agry voters or guys leading him off to prison eventually.
