In keeping with today’s theme of Democrats hating Andrew Cuomo is today’s column by Fred Dicker, “Democrats: ‘Anybody but Cuomo’ for president“:
“Top New York Democrats are whispering for the first time that Hillary Rodham Clinton may not be their presidential candidate next year. And while they’re far from agreeing on who it might be, they do agree on one thing: It won’t be Gov. Cuomo. “People in the party all hate him,’’ one of the state’s best-known Democratic operatives told The Post. A prominent Democratic elected official added, “There’s an ABC factor at work here. It’s ‘Anybody but Cuomo’.’’ …”
All those people he’s fucked over are coming back to haunt him.
“… Cuomo has been widely mentioned by commentators as a possible candidate for president if Clinton doesn’t run, but a series of setbacks, including the investigation by US Attorney Preet Bharara into the governor’s closing of the Moreland panel on corruption, as well as Cuomo’s disappointing showing in last year’s gubernatorial primary, has cut into his standing … Said another prominent Democrat, “Two years ago, there’s no question Cuomo was a serious contender for the nomination …””
What cut into his standing? Gun control. Fred doesn’t mention it, but right up until that point Cuomo was riding high. He completely lost his shit during his ’13 State of the State and it was all downhill from there.
Career politician like his liberal father(may he not rest in peace) His political ambitions ended with the bullshit “SAFE ACT”.Along side of him was his partner in crime Sheldon Silver another career criminal who’s going to get his just desserts.Cuomo must be sweating.
