3. Should Spitzer Resign, An BLIND MAN Will Become Governor Of NYS
He's legally blind, not sure what vision we have left. Would be nice to see someone in office that has the desire to help those who are disabled!

4. So?? I do not see the problem here
if the Lt. Governor of NY is legally blind it does not mean that he is incapable of conducting the duties of Governor of NY.

I am sure he has ways of obtaining and absorbing information even though he is blind.

Frankly I don't see the problem.

10. Sadly I have to apologize
I did not completely take the context of your post correctly.

While reading other posts in this thread I see that this was the incorrect spot for my post.

While my overall outlook has not changed, I note that my attitude in this matter has been quite adequately covered in other of the numerous posts/comments concerning this matter.

Please accept my humble apology.

:pals:
