With Hillary Clinton focusing on her strong presidential campaign, NY State Democrats are wondering who will take over her place as the junior Senator from New York. Apparently Governor Spitzer may be open to putting Attorney General Andrew Cuomo on his shortlist.

Here is part two of our semi-chronological look back at the top stories this past year (here is part one):

In other news, it turns out that the G.O.P. has been paying for the personal assistant of NY's First Lady, Libby Pataki, raising questions of about whether that's the best use of the NY State Republican party's funds, given the lack of up-and-coming Republican talent. Man, Governor Pataki, you're making it so easy for us to dislike you! To the relief of NY State Democrats, the only noise that came from Senator Hillary Clinton's appearance upstate was that she fainted during a speech. She's fine, apparently suffering from a stomach flu, and will be back to polarizing voters soon enough.
