Paterson Getting The Skeletons Out Early
Posted by Bossip Staff
David Paterson, the successor to former NY governor and wanting to hit hookers raw dude Eliot Spitzer airs out his dirty laundry early in the game:
Responding to rumors circulating in Albany, Paterson and his wife, Michelle, told the Daily News of New York City that both had affairs during a rough patch in their marriage several years ago.
“This was a marriage that appeared to be going sour at one point,” Paterson told the Daily News. “But I went to counseling and we decided we wanted to make it work. Michelle is well aware of what went on.”
Paterson told the newspaper that he maintained a relationship with another woman from 1999 until 2001. He and his wife, Michelle, eventually sought counseling and repaired their relationship. The couple did not go into details. Paterson and the other woman sometimes stayed at a Days Inn on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the governor said, adding that his Albany staff sometimes stayed there as well when they were in the city. Paterson said he did not use government or campaign funds to pay for the romantic encounters.
Dave said fu*k that, I’m a lay all this on the table early so none of this comes to haunt me down the line.

i think this guy is right for the governor of
nyc….i guess the media is gonna dig for gossip
including bossip
some one told me he is the sponsor of a STD dating site
hah~~ i’m the first.
@ Stronger than Ever is back from Spring Break
LOL..You r so rigghtt about that! I just feel that everything is all fake the government will be crashing down soon.
ok…..so political figures cheat….this isnt news, but im glad he is upfront about it. most politicians dont acknowledge they cheat until they are caught.
I don’t blaim him, this bother black; thanks to the Major of D. no black polotician safe
@SBM aka Stonger…I agree as well!
At least he got it out the way early!
Most officials have cheated on their spouses so this is not news. The issue with Elliot Spitzers case was that he used millions of dollars that most likely belonged to the taxpayers to engage in sexual acts with a prostitute!!! It really didn’t have to do with him cheating on his wife even though that is also not right.
Correction…thousands of dollars.
He is smart for revealing this even tho he didn’t have to. It’s his personal relationship and he doesn’t have to explain anything. Obviously he was honest with his wife about it and he didn’t use any government money sooo what? They decided to work it out. Good for them and their relationship.
Lol yeh a lot of niggas cheat on their females, but dawg do that shit before you get married…If you know you about to marry a girl, get all them demons out of your system, so when you get to where you going, your ass isn’t in the news..
keep the chinchilla on the rack, the 1st lady of NY is rocking that precious sable
Exactly. Why get married if you want to still be a whore? There is nothing wrong with being a whore if that’s what you want to do. But when it comes to sealing the deal, get it all out so you won’t have your “shit” snatched from you when you make it to the top!
@smokey…okay! was it that cold out?
I feel him hardbody for what he did. Get it out there now so there are no tears and job losses later. Shyt happens. I am glad they worked it out though.
He didn’t just volunteer the info, he was responding to rumors. Anyway, it is good that he addressed it early. People will forget about it by next week. Unfortunately for Spitzer he won’t get to live it down for a while because his ho’s 15 minutes just started.
good move
Yea right! That nicca was paying for that ass……(lol)
Get it out berfore the crackers try to crack you…good work…
Nigga shoulda kept his gotdayum mouth shut. That pre-emptive bullshit just makes homeboy look weak and shady. Of course, a lot of suckers will prop his ass for that garbage. Another case of the blind leading the blind…
Further stories indicate that they BOTH had outside relationships during a rocky period in their marriage. As a result I don’t think it’ll be viewed as him being unfaithful as much as they thought they were heading towards divorce.
Still smart for getting the full story out there cause the NYC reporters WILL dig ya’ dirt up something quick.
I’d do the same thing….
Very, very smart.
I understand him putting himself on blast like that but I don’t know if he should be laying his personal stuff out like that. Look at his wife’s face. SHe looks like she’s thinking, ” what the phk, nga? I thought we weren’t gonna bring that sh!+ no more!!” Remind me to bust you in the head when we get home….”
dAAAM, ALL i CAN THINK IS DUDE BLIND AND STILL GETTIN HIS MACK ON, lol!
I think he was correct to get it out there now. My view is better to be proactive that reactive. Since him and his wife was both creeping and admit it, this will blow over real quick.
such a keen sense of feel blind people got like steve w. or r.i.p. ray charles, with the key board. Paterson feels he’s black he may not see it but damn does he feel the heat from being it.
yeah that should of been kept btw counsel and wifey. he’s fucked.
When you tell the truth no one can use it against you.
That is smart, they should alll do that. Lay out your shit first, before someone does it for you.
@ Herpesdating
Do u really have it? Why the screen name?
@ Harlem Chic
When you tell the truth no one can use it against you.
————————————————————————————
This is so true!
They look like a scandalous couple! They both look scared as hell that something is bout to go down…I don’t likem just by looking…Scandalous…

That’s what I’m saying……… and the Spitzers are rich already! but they’re gonna use taxpayer money to fund their bullshit. And he didn’t have an affair, there was no love involved (misguided as it would be), he just paid for hoes. What a loser twice over. But the absolute worst part is that he was running down other people, putting people in jail, while he was doing the same shit they were. Spitzer’s ass should be in jail over this shit.
@SIX Shooter (GET MONEY), I totally agree with you.
YES, I AM SO HAPPY. THE FIRST BLACK GOVENOR OF NY!!!! YAY!!!! 2008 IS THE YEAR FOR US TO SHINE. LETS GO PATERSON!
I respect him for gettin it out early. All this shows is that we are all human.
well, they BOTH cheated so it cancels it out
good for him, but me, i’m gonna DENY DENY DENY till the california cows come home
him cheating on his wife is personal business. I as a nyer dont really care….they work it out…good for them.
but using my tax money on hookers is a much bigger issue….
I’m a slob. I can’t help it.
@ Serene
You don’t pay taxes. u eat taxes out my ass!
smart move!! get it out now so they cant say nothing in the future
Just Sit and Be FAT & Bajan
I’m a slob. I can’t help it.
^^^^^^^^^^^
I agree!

Why is any one surprise. Men cheat. I just wonder what would a wife want. Would you rather he pay for it or lay up with the same hoe from 1999-2001 with emotional attachments.
Look at this:
“And this helps explain, perhaps, my relationship with Rev. Wright. As imperfect as he may be, he has been like family to me. He strengthened my faith, officiated my wedding, and baptized my children.
Not once in my conversations with him have I heard him talk about any ethnic group in derogatory terms, or treat whites with whom he interacted with anything but courtesy and respect. He contains within him the contradictions — the good and the bad — of the community that he has served diligently for so many years.
I can no more disown him than I can disown the black community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother — a woman who helped raise me, a woman who sacrificed again and again for me, a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world, but a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe.
These people are a part of me. And they are a part of America, this country that I love.
Some will see this as an attempt to justify or excuse comments that are simply inexcusable. I can assure you it is not. I suppose the politically safe thing would be to move on from this episode and just hope that it fades into the woodwork.
We can dismiss Rev. Wright as a crank or a demagogue, just as some have dismissed Geraldine Ferraro, in the aftermath of her recent statements, as harboring some deep-seated racial bias.
But race is an issue that I believe this nation cannot afford to ignore right now. We would be making the same mistake that Rev. Wright made in his offending sermons about America — to simplify and stereotype and amplify the negative to the point that it distorts reality.
The fact is that the comments that have been made and the issues that have surfaced over the last few weeks reflect the complexities of race in this country that we’ve never really worked through — a part of our union that we have yet to perfect.
And if we walk away now, if we simply retreat into our respective corners, we will never be able to come together and solve challenges like health care, or education, or the need to find good jobs for every American.
Understanding this reality requires a reminder of how we arrived at this point. As William Faulkner once wrote, “The past isn’t dead and buried. In fact, it isn’t even past.” We do not need to recite here the history of racial injustice in this country.
But we do need to remind ourselves that so many of the disparities that exist in the African-American community today can be directly traced to inequalities passed on from an earlier generation that suffered under the brutal legacy of slavery and Jim Crow.
Segregated schools were, and are, inferior schools; we still haven’t fixed them, fifty years after Brown v. Board of Education, and the inferior education they provided, then and now, helps explain the pervasive achievement gap between today’s black and white students.
Legalized discrimination — where blacks were prevented, often through violence, from owning property, or loans were not granted to African-American business owners, or black homeowners could not access FHA mortgages, or blacks were excluded from unions, or the police force, or fire departments — meant that black families could not amass any meaningful wealth to bequeath to future generations.
That history helps explain the wealth and income gap between black and white, and the concentrated pockets of poverty that persists in so many of today’s urban and rural communities.
A lack of economic opportunity among black men, and the shame and frustration that came from not being able to provide for one’s family, contributed to the erosion of black families — a problem that welfare policies for many years may have worsened.
And the lack of basic services in so many urban black neighborhoods — parks for kids to play in, police walking the beat, regular garbage pick-up and building code enforcement — all helped create a cycle of violence, blight and neglect that continue to haunt us.
This is the reality in which Rev. Wright and other African-Americans of his generation grew up. They came of age in the late fifties and early sixties, a time when segregation was still the law of the land and opportunity was systematically constricted.
What’s remarkable is not how many failed in the face of discrimination, but rather how many men and women overcame the odds; how many were able to make a way out of no way for those like me who would come after them.
But for all those who scratched and clawed their way to get a piece of the American Dream, there were many who didn’t make it — those who were ultimately defeated, in one way or another, by discrimination.
That legacy of defeat was passed on to future generations — those young men and, increasingly, young women who we see standing on street corners or languishing in our prisons, without hope or prospects for the future. Even for those blacks who did make it, questions of race, and racism, continue to define their worldview in fundamental ways.
For the men and women of Rev. Wright’s generation, the memories of humiliation and doubt and fear have not gone away; nor has the anger and the bitterness of those years.
That anger may not get expressed in public, in front of white co-workers or white friends. But it does find voice in the barbershop or around the kitchen table. At times, that anger is exploited by politicians, to gin up votes along racial lines, or to make up for a politician’s own failings.
And occasionally it finds voice in the church on Sunday morning, in the pulpit and in the pews. The fact that so many people are surprised to hear that anger in some of Rev. Wright’s sermons simply reminds us of the old truism that the most segregated hour in American life occurs on Sunday morning.”
This is why he can my vote and the votes of millions more.
Yes.We.Can!!!
Obama 2008 & 2012
I respect Paterson for airing his stuff out early on. It would have been a scandal and a pos on Bossip in no time, but the fact that he was man enough to say it now, leaves no room for a big surprise. Think about it, who knows if the people they were messing with during that rough patch (which everyone has from time to time…I don’t care who u are!) were to go public because they’re mad or just looking money.
Your marriage is your business, but when you’re a public figure, especially an elected figure, it becomes everybody’s business.
I hope he does a great job at being governor and I hope people start to realize that soemone’s personal life is only one facet. The most critical thing is how he does his job, not who he f*cks when he and his wife aren’t getting along.
what is up with NY and sex scandals?
Thats the move Patterson!! Tell it like it is, Black men have no problem putting it out there- white men hide thier sexcapades, and aint no sense in lying on your dick!! If your wife knows, then who cares what anyone else thinks… I live in NYC and this is the REAL city of Sin- sex is for sale everywhere, I always say this is not the place to have a relationship- there is just waaaay too much temptation and avail out to men, how can you stay loyal with all that?? This is a city for singles!! And dont have $$ or power… Sheez, a man can turn down 25 offers a day and STILL manage to collect a dozen chics on the same day!!! Dime a dozen!!! I am a female and I see women throw themselves @ men for some of the DUMBEST reasons, so imagine if he has even a lil sumn to offer…
More proof that if you are getting paper in NYC, you can get laid regularly, blind or not.
soooooo……everyone cheats. nothing new
David Paterson is a very kind man. He offer many helps to the Herpes woman on “www.stdpal.com” last year. And promise to one of the girl that he will offer more helpes to her this year. You can check a blog named ” David Paterson and us” to find the details
David Paterson supports Hillary Clinton. BOOOOOO!!!
Yeah, he put his own sh*t on blast but you can best believe that somebody’s gonna try to find the chick he was trickin’ with!
I swear to…..
BOSSIP–
Why don’t you do something about these mufukkin’ spammers?????????????????
This shit is ridiculous!!!!
He’s a longtime politician who’s smart enough to realize that with Spitzer keeping the bar so low, he could admit to almost anything at this point and still smell like a rose. Timing and perception, it’s just playing politics.
It is really smart to get this out there the day after you were inagurated after the previous gov resigned in a scandal. It would have been impressive had he gotten this out during his election campaign.
I just care if his love with a hot play girl can last so long in millonaire dating site”W e a l t h y L o v i n g . c o m”?Is the baby really…
@ Bubothehater–
Good point! I guess no one was checkin’ for him during the election. If they were, they probably would’ve found this out then.
Another thought–
They probably did know but didn’t think he was relevent enough to air him out. I still think that someone is going to track down the woman and we’ll hear about it soon!
How does a blind nicca cheat? No shit, I cannot believe these high class Black people aired their dirty laundry in public like this. This is disgusting.
DAMN! This is exactly why I stay single! Everybody’s burnin’!
most of this african -american marraiges flops after 2yrs anyways. not tryng to generalize but its the truth.its not only the men who does it, the women are the worse. 2 months ago i fucked this bitch whoese husband was in iraqqqq. she came hunting me down like shit…… my friends tell me the have fucked alot of african-american wivessssssssssss!!!!!!!!!! and girlfriendsssss!!!!!
Hell he may be blind but he definitely knows how to find the coochie!lol!
His wife Is From Alabama. A small town of Alabaama
He better Lay has shit out on the line, Because we down south women don’t play. He got a country girl.
He maybe be blind but he also can find Days Inn. I bet thats some good loving with an blind mice.
OBAMA needs to let all his shit out before he hit this WHITE HOUSE. I don’t want to hear two years later, that he been knocking Hillary the whole time. She really looks like she want to make Bill Clinton pay for that shit he done with Monica.
I Bet the blind mice was having an affair with a white woman.
I was shock to even see he had an sista for a wife. Then to find out she from my hometown in Alabama.
