Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are calling on New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo to resign over multiple allegations of sexual harassment, but he has made it clear he has no plans to leave office. But the three-term Democrat is weakened, and Republicans are already lining up to run against him if he avoids impeachment.

Whoever it is they need to have some name recognition AND have the support of the GOP. And not just a "Go get 'em tiger! Best of luck to ya!" without any financial support like they did with Astorino. I mean real support with campaign ads and blitzes all across the state.

Cuomo has never been weaker than he is now. If he's forced to abdicate (whether through resignation or impeachment) Hocul will be governor but doesn't have the panache that Cuomo had. She's an opponent who could be toppled. If Cuomo hangs on to run for reelection the perfect talking point will be sexual harassment and #metoo. We need a candidate who's squeaky clean on those issues, especially if they're male.

Even now half the state doesn’t want him to resign. Killing people then lying about it then treating women like trash if that isn’t enough what is? No Republican has a chance against him. Too many New Yorkers love him.

I couldn't care less who is next or which party he belongs to. It's going to be the same shit. What's even worse, a new governor will need to push through more gun control to add to his resume. Fuck them all.

"Dominion Voting System ImageCast" is used in 52 of the state's 62 counties.

"It's not the people who vote that count, it's the people who count the votes."
- Joseph Stalin

Of course Stalin never said that, nor would he have a reason to say it. Why would authoritarian leader talk about winning elections? It's a standard operating procedure in the U.S. to make up quotes and attribute them to world leaders of the past. Mao said, blah, blah, blah. Stalin said blah, blah, blah. Lenin said blah, blah, blah. Our politics is all about telling lies. The public is treated as gullible idiots, poorly educated and easily manipulated.

Did Joseph Stalin Say, 'It's Not the People Who Vote That Count ...'?

One version of a quote about those who count votes determining the outcomes of elections was attributed to Joseph Stalin in a book by his former secretary.

agreed, I doubt Cuomo is going anywhere. He will simply let this play out. The DOJ will say "bad boy, stop that, don't do that again" The women will be outraged, the media will shrug and it will be business as usual. Cuomo will be embolden to do whatever he wants.

I use to LOVE NY, but the politics make the state unlivable, but now, Im realizing its the politics AND NYC that make the state unlivable.

How anyone can put any faith in the accuracy and truthfulness of a poll is beyond me, especially those taken in the Sea of Corruption also known as New York.

I fucking know that.. I figure most people probably do too. It's not like some big secret.
But it has only been repeated a hundred thousand fucking times.
I use it as a metaphor as most people do.

Lighten up Francis.

You people need to get your quotes right, Stalin's EXACT QUOTE IS

" it doesn't matter who votes, but who cut down my cherry tree, besides there would be a rifle behind every redneck pickup truck with a case of Beer and a drunk, I'd rather go to the theater anyway"

so there you have it, I got that off Google, you people need to learn how to use the interweeb :idk: :popcorn:

That sounds like something Joe Biden would say. Just need a "dog-faced pony soldier" line in there somewhere.
