This from Capital Tonight:
As Kaitlyn reported at the top of Capital Tonight, the exchange is between Carl Paladino and NY Post State Editor Fred Dicker, who nearly came to blows and had to be separated.
The candidate for governor and journalist are shown having a confrontation over Dicker allegedly sending a photographer to follow around the 10-year-old daughter Paladino fathered outside his marriage. The Buffalo businessman called Dicker a “stalking horse” for his Democratic gubernatorial opponent, Andrew Cuomo.
Paladino makes a threat in the heat of anger fueled by a very personal issue. Personally, I sympathize with Paladino getting this angry over political opportunists following his 10 year old daughter around. I mean, how low can you go here. But throwing around threats like ‘I’ll take you out’ will just provide fodder for Cuomo.
The citizens of New York are stereotyped as tough and ‘no nonsense’ and even though I don’t know many New Yorkers, this may play well with them. I guess we’ll know in a few days.
It is a shame that they can't discuss issues that they have to act like this...I am certain most dads would have had some choice words of threat to anyone peering into their daughter's bedroom window...It is time that we vote these bad representatives of our country OUT!!!!!
