The Patrick Cooper of jazz launches a sneak attack
And here I thought Patrick Cooper the mayoral candidate was my rival Google. Just as Andre Natta, publisher of Birmingham's The Terminal, gives me a great reason to pull for candidate Patrick Cooper — "even if he wins, your site will end up retaking it's number 1 spot sooner rather than later since all of his inquiries would end up at our city's website anyway" — we get a November Patrick Cooper surprise.
Put on your Drudge red lights. Patrick Cooper the jazz musician has grabbed half of our shared name's PageRank. Search for our name without quotes and he's #1. As of this evening, search for our name with quotes and I'm #1. It's like Patrick Cooper me and Patrick Cooper the mayoral candidate split the vote, and the Patrick Cooper of jazz strolled right by. He hasn't updated his site since 2007ish. Not good.

He's the Marisa Tomei of the Patrick Coopers!

Agreed. The Wikipedia entry on vote splitting is in great need of your help. Far too much politics there, far too little Tomei.
