Obama Urges Paterson to Withdraw from Governor’s Race
-----------------------------------------------------



New York Governor David Paterson is insisting that he will continue his
campaign for governor despite calls from the White House to step aside.
The New York Times reported on Sunday that President Obama had sent a
request to Paterson that he withdraw from the New York governor’s race
because of fears he cannot win a general election.
