Ken Lovett at the Daily News opines<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“No one thinks Fordham Law School Prof. Zephyr Teachout<\/a> will beat Gov. Cuomo<\/a> in the Sept. 9 Democratic primary \u2014 but she could hurt him, experts said … If she gets 20% or more of the vote, it would show that a sizable amount of Cuomo\u2019s own Democratic party has little enthusiasm for the governor, despite his success on gay marriage and tougher gun laws, Democratic operatives say …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There’s zero enthusiasm for Cuomo now.\u00a0 Name one elected Democrat who is jumping up and down for his re-election?<\/p>\n

Lovett inadvertently stumbles into the flaws with the gun control movement.\u00a0 First, it doesn’t motivate the Left like other issues due.\u00a0 Second, the astroturf nature of the antis make it impossible for them to impact elections.\u00a0 If Cuomo had done his homework he should have known this before pinning his political career on the issue.<\/p>\n
