I think Governor Paterson has finally lost it.

I think I've had a better opinion of the Governor than most, but with his recent comments — attributing poor reaction to his public performance and his lack of support among fellow Democrats as "an orchestrated, racially biased effort by the media to force him to step aside" — I think accusations like that are usually a better indicator of exasperation and frustration than qualities important for leadership, in bad times or good.

This week, he claims he's been misunderstood, which might have been possible if he hadn't made his comments in a radio interview.
