I keep harping on this<\/a> because the media refuses to acknowledge it: Democrats do not like Governor Cuomo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Exhibit A<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“A day after Albany leaders announced a budget deal, State Senator Simcha Felder<\/a>, a Democrat, issued a blistering attack on Governor Cuomo and Speaker Shelly Silver<\/a> for killing the \u2018Education Initiative Tax Credit\u2019 bill sponsored by Brooklyn Senators Marty Golden<\/a> and Felder … As a result of his outrage, Felder is considering to not endorse Governor Cuomo in his reelection bid this fall. Felder is so furious at the Governor for killing his signature bill that he\u2019s considering to endorse Republican gubernatorial candidate Rob Astorino<\/a> for governor …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Exhibit B<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Keep in mind Siena is notoriously biased to the left.\u00a0 He’s probably 5-7 points lower than what their polls show.<\/p>\n
