Carl Paladino, the 2010 Republican gubernatorial nominee in New York, will run for a seat on the Buffalo, N.Y. school board, the Associated Press reported Thursday.

As the AP noted, the tough-talking Paladino has been a regular critic of the Buffalo school board — tension that bubbled to the surface on Wednesday.

From the AP:

Paladino was escorted by security out of Wednesday’s school board meeting after telling the board president she was out of line. He’d been told the same thing after he accused the board of mishandling recent sewage backups at one school.
