2. Heavy hitters row: Shumer, Clinton, Dinkins, Hugh Carey, Bloomberg.
What a day. Patterson is quite the wit. And no teleprompter.

6. He's legally blind.
So, I'm pretty sure the teleprompter is turned off. I work w/ an association of disabled and today is a big day-first legally blind governor of NY. Go Patterson!
