Today's Poll: Should Gov. Andrew Cuomo run for president in 2016?

I really liked how at first he spent a lot of time reaching across bipartisan lines to get something accomplished. Now it seems he has taken more of an approach after the midterm elections in NY, to say Im all done playing now. He ran on being a moderate democrat, really middle of the road. NOW...... He is just another Flaming Liberal.

The non needed gun control thing really didnt surprise me. I kinda figured he jump on the band wagon. National appeal to the Liberal base and all. The thing that really caught my attention a few months ago, that really started to have me sour on him, was that whole go with a Canadian company at almost 30 million more than the company in NY thing for our drivers licences printing. He did stop it "for now", but thats only because some out of control spending watch group caught it and the press, mostly out of non main stream medium, started to crush him on it. He is turning out to be a TAX and Spend Governor.

Notice how the leopard changed his spots now that reelection time is coming and just maybe Hillary not wanting to run. I looks to me that Cuomo and his group think the time is ripe for his presidential run.
How is raising the minimum wage going to help anyone? We all know businesses will raise their rates or decrease number of employees to pay for the increase. NET EFFECT IS "0".
