Given that Mayor Bloomberg has wandered up and down the map in his quest to be loved for who he truly is*, this may not be very surprising. How can a legacy politician whose most marketable skill is his last name be expected to keep up with the political peregrinations of a rank opportunist and party-switcher? – still, you’d expect better than a room-temperature IQ performance here. Andrew Cuomo is supposed to be someone special. And not in the mean sense of the term.
“Have I voted for the mayor? Yes,” Cuomo said.
Actually, he didn’t. The Cuomo campaign had to issue a clarification, saying he was only registered to vote in New York City in 2005 when he endorsed Democrat Fernando Ferrer.
Translation: “Has he voted for the mayor? No.” Personally, if I had ever voted for Bloomberg the shame and anguish at my lack of judgment would have been burned into my soul, but that sort of thing apparently weighs lightly on the consciences of Democrats. No wonder Carl Palladino‘s surging.

*A quest made utterly futile by the fact that he’s, well, Mayor Bloomberg – and thus inherently unlovable.

Andrew Cuomo is the Exception to the Peter Principle..
conservativecurmudgeon (Diary) Thursday, September 23rd at 8:21AM EDT (link)…in that he’s risen ABOVE the level of his own incompetence.
If this fool’s name had been Andrew Schmomo about the last thing he would ever have been is some rising stud in the Clinton White House. He’s a thug, and a foul-tempered thug, at that.
If there has ever been a better example of how far the Republic has fallen is that this boob seeks the same governing seat once held by the likes of DeWitt Clinton… and that ANYONE not residing in the Drunk Tank would consider voting for him. “I’m a Politician! I’m in Government!” he says, as if this is some sort of Mission Statement. Gad, free us from this man, and all those like him.
Cuomo voted for Bloomberg before he remembered

The Mouthpiece of the Financial Meltdown
Spartan4Life (Diary) Thursday, September 23rd at 9:22AM EDT (link)If you had to pick one person to blame for the sub-prime financial meltdown it would have to be Cuomo. I think he was just carrying the water for Hillary and Barney Frank’s grand Community Reinvestment Act(Jimmy Carter) vision but he still has to take the blame for it.
Go Palladino!
like father, like son.
johnt Thursday, September 23rd at 10:53AM EDT (link)Mario,[to mention his first name was racism, btw. ran NY S like a crime operation, his pisans managing the Javits Center, keeping a double set of books on the Empire State health Plan[ Blue Cross, Blue Shield}, a nasty man, untouched by doubt.
Andrew continues the family line & fits in with the Spitzer/Pelosi/Reid as well.
I would think Pallidino would be an improvement. Right now it’s just enjoyable to see him treat Andrew like the trash he is Cuomo isn’t used to it, usually they get to do all the smearing and some dumb ass Republican just smiles & takes it.
Maybe some on the center/right are finally wising up, throw the dirt right in the left’s face.
