With Eliot Spitzer’s announcement that he’s resigning happening earlier today, New Yorkers are about to have a new governor. As of this minute, you can see that the new governor, David Paterson, does not appear in Google Trends. It takes about an hour, as best I can figure for searches to start showing up in Hot Trends. It all depends on when Google updates. You can be sure people are searching like crazy to find out more about Governor Paterson right now.
I’ll give you a few facts, but essentially, this is really just a prediction in my ongoing quest to be able to predict everything that will show up in Google Trends and why. However, I can’t reveal my master plan as to what I might do with this knowledge when I get it. What kind of master plan would that be? How can I take over the world when you all know what I’m going to do? Nevermind what I just said…
David Paterson will become the first black governor of New York, but will also become the first legally blind governor of any state.

Using Geraldine Ferraro’s logic about Barak Obama, he must be REALLY, REALLY lucky to be who he is…black and blind. What a lucky devil.

you’ve got to be pretty lucky to have the sitting governor who was elected by a landslide step aside because the FBI caught him ordering up a prostitute like most of us order up a pizza.
The prostitute is now on Paterson’s Christmas list.
