At 1 p.m. today, Governor David Paterson will give his first State of the State Address (NY1.com will be streaming it). Besides touching upon the grim economy, he's expected to discuss expanding health care coverage to more New Yorkers. Last night, the Governor appeared on Nightline, continuing to express his concern over the economy ("We have not hit bottom yet") and saying there are 15-20 people he's considering to replace Hillary Clinton. He also said it takes for him to memorize his State of the State, "I can't read the speech. Since I'm not totally blind, I never learned Braille, so I can't read the speech by hand and then recite. So I basically have to memorize it."
