ALBANY, N.Y. - New York Gov. David Paterson, who is a superdelegate supporting Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, says he hopes she will end her effort to count Michigan and Florida votes to save her presidential campaign.

Paterson says he doubts his home-state senator would get the edge in the popular vote over Democratic Sen. Barack Obama, even if the two states' votes were counted.

3. I like this guy more and more
I respect that he supports her, but he uses logic, reason, and relatively simple mathematics to form his viewpoints.

We've had a clear lack of that lately and it still continues today.

6. More SD's need to
Stand up and be heard. This is getting to be a circus, and Hillary is hurting the party, and herself by keeping this up! If more delegates, especially ones that are now backing her speak out as Paterson has, maybe, just maybe she would the hint and put and end to this madness!
