What a pile of crap this so-called deal is. Andrew Cuomo got the nomination of the Working Families Family by making a bunch of promises he has no intention of keeping. And NYC Mayor Bill DeBlasio pulled the whole sorry deal together.
Cuomo is deep under the covers with the state Republicans, thwarting progressive Democratic legislation at every turn. He is trying to burnish his bipartisan credentials, just like his good friend Chris Christie, and for the same reason: He wants to be president. Bah. I wouldn’t vote for this little weasel under any circumstances.
And he’s taking DeBlasio with him for the ride. Ain’t it grand how the Clinton machine is able to work its political will? Anybody who supports Clinton, either one, is a sell out. Let’s take talking head Stephanie Miller for example. If Miller is what passes for a Progressive these days, then 35-59 year olds are heading for some real trouble. The right wing of the Democratic Party is doing serious damage to the 99%.
