| HylianSwordsman said: You're wasting your money. Cuomo might be able to win an election against Trump, but I doubt it. Even if he could, he'll never make it past the primary. Your being a lifelong Republican blinds you to the fact that the Democratic primary electorate thinks he's a crook, at least everywhere outside his state anyway. It'll come down to Bernie, Biden, Warren, and Harris, unless some unknown pops out of nowhere, which Obama sort of did. Any of those could win the general in theory, but Warren would have it toughest. Definitely not Cuomo though. I'd sooner put my money on an independent billionaire like Cuban or Bloomberg than Cuomo. |
The Democrats will nominate Joe Biden. That is not in serious question in my mind. It's already obvious that the party leaders favor him and recent Democratic primaries for lower-level public offices suggest that the more progressive wing of the party remains generally incapable of winning internal elections for statewide offices like Governor or Senator; just for House seats, which represent fewer people each. Those aren't promising signs for a progressive victory in the next nominating contest.
I will re-evaluate this assertion only if Andrew Cuomo is successfully primaried by Cynthia Nixon in next month's Democratic nominating contest for the governorship of New York.
