| Kirsten Gillibrand took a ceremonial oath of office today in a very packed room at the courthouse in Hudson, NY. The crowd was filled with loads of state and local pols and party folks. Rep. Maurice Hinchey (NY-22) even made an appearance as did our very own Andrew C. White.
Here's some of what we saw and heard...

UPDATE: Man, I blog this from the car and still get scooped by Capitol Confidential by about 20 minutes. Sheesh. |

Maurice Hinchey working the crowd.

The New Representative of New York's 20th Congressional District, Kirsten Gillibrand hereself.

Maurice and Kirsten. Is it just me or does Maurice look more and more like LLoyd Bridges everyday? Everytime I see that guy I hear the theme to Sea Hunt.
Quote of the day:
"When I finish administering the oath to Kirsten, I will do something that I never imagined that I would ever do. I will kiss a member of Congress."
--Judge Roger Miner |
