Angry Losing "Tea Party" New York Gubernatorial Candidate Carl
Paladino Threatens Winner Andrew Cuomo with a Baseball Bat

-- Carl Paladino and his baseball bat
By Sarah Muller - Wed Nov 3, 2010 11:06 AM EDT
It seems almost fitting Carl Paladino waved an orange baseball bat
around on national TV in his so-called concession speech. The New York
gubernatorial candidate lost to Democrat Andrew Cuomo by a landslide
in yesterday's election. Paladino's anti-gay remarks, racist emails
and physically threats to people didn't scream "best person to govern"
to New Yorkers.

Further confirming our suspicions of his erratic streak, he delivered
a "message" to Cuomo behind the podium. He said his bat was a metaphor
for the people. And if Cuomo uses it to help the state, great. Then,
Paladino issued a warning. He said, if Cuomo chooses to "leave [the
bat] untouched," he runs "the risk of having it wielded against" him.

Was this an actual threat or just a really crappy metaphor?

Have a great day,
