David Patterson and Kirsten Gillibrand: is she still applauding him now?
(Hat tip: Instapundit)
Acting like nearly every other public official in his state and the country with half a brain and any heart, New York Gov. David Patterson has ordered a freeze on all state contracts with ACORN.
Patterson's move leaves appointed Senator Kirsten Gillibrand all alone as the only major statewide official who blindly supports the deeply tainted, publicly funded mess known as ACORN.
It's important for New Yorkers to persuade Giilibrand of the error of her ways. Despite lop-sided votes to defund ACORN in the House and Senate, it's far from certain whether both Houses will pass and agree on a final measure. Pressing the current handful of ACORN supporters like Gillibrand to retreat could make a big difference when Congress takes up the issue again. And as an appointed Senator up for election in 2010, Gillibrand is, well, more persuadable than most.
So, New Yorkers: let Gillibrand hear from you. Contact her by going to her website here.

Maybe both of them will be gone soon, now that Obama is trying to push Patterson out, one reason being that he defied Obama and appointed Gillibrand! Watch your back, Kirsten.
