NEW YORK (AP) - Calling himself an everyday fighter, Gov. David Paterson is quietly putting an end to the talk that he would prolong his long-shot bid to stay in office.
But the announcement Friday that the governor won't seek election may not be enough to quiet growing questions and a criminal investigation into Paterson's handling of an abuse complaint against a top aide.
Andrew Cuomo, the Democrat who will likely run for the office Paterson will leave, is heading a probe into whether the Paterson administration, and the governor himself, improperly intervened in a domestic violence case involving one of Paterson's most trusted aides, David Johnson.
