At this point, if he doesn't resign, he's getting impeached. I don't even think there's a question.

Schumer and Adams coming out in support of resignation. The base will turn on Cuomo once they get enough permission from blue team leaders.

All hands must be on deck to ensure that in the next gubernatorial race, Letishia James is vaulted ahead as NY's knight of truth, justice and anti-sexual harassment.

I supported Zephyr but wasn't able to vote for her due to NY's restrictive primary laws. Following that race was a pretty formative experience.

Name recognition aside, I'd vote for her on her name alone - imagine if she were fat: zephyr the heifer

Jeffrey "Shadowjacker" Toobin analyzing the Andrew Cuomo groping situation on CNN is peak awesomeness.

If James hadn't done this then you'd be shouting about the Democrats closing ranks to protect their own, like, ooh, I dunno, Trump endorsing Roy Moore (which you may have been opposed to at the time, I don't recall). Point is, I'm not sure that there's any way James could be seen in your eyes to be doing right here.

I think at this point pretty much everyone regardless of political stripes can probably agree that Cuomo has long since worn out his welcome, rather than it needing to turn into a partisan slapfight.

Trump's endorsement of Roy Moore in 2017 is something I was very much against for a whole host of reasons.

As far as Laticia James, isn't it possible that someone could be doing the right thing which could also simultaneously be advantageous for her career? That's all I'm saying.

Absolutely. I would hope that doing the right thing should simultaneously be advantageous for one's career, and it's a shame that too often it's not. So when you said

was the intended subtext "yaaasss queen, good for you, well done"?

Well it apparently wasn't Toobin, but my comment still stands.

I love getting rid of Cuomo.

I very much do not love that BdB was asked the other day about considering a run at gov and he was cagey about it.

The only Dem I can think of I'd want less than Cuomo would be Mayor Masshole.
Teams that draft well do so no matter where they pick. Teams that draft poorly do so no matter where they pick I want my team to win games and draft well

There was a time this was said about a certain treasonous former POTUS.

Never underestimate the stupidity (and laziness) of the electorate.

Trump had a base waiting to be tapped. DeBlasio still appeals to who?
