hmmmmm "She is an outspoken advocate for gun rights, and she supports an extension of the Bush tax cuts. She has been endorsed by the [NRA]" -- nm - ty97 Jan 23, 06:20 17
- she has the most bipartisan political quality of all. she's rich....nm - x Jan 23, 06:31
- So, she's the anti-me? - nubby Jan 23, 06:30

        I really should pay more attention to local stuff... -- nm - znufrii Jan 23, 06:56
    - Why? She had no experience in politics and probably wouldn't have been able to do much for the state. - krusty Jan 23, 06:44 3

        I think this is a poor choice that was made politically so he could use it when he runs for Governor in a couple of years. - krusty Jan 23, 06:56 1

I can't believe he went past Cuomo. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 23, 06:12 18
- Speculation I've read is a combination of 1) wanted a woman 2) Cuomo is the successor for Governor - ty97 Jan 23, 06:14 10
  - moving Cuomo over would also mean most of the top politicians in NY were chosen, not elected -- nm - decline Jan 23, 06:18
  - I'm betting on #1 being accurate. - Will Hunting Jan 23, 06:18
  - 3) is mistaken, as the Dems control both houses of the Legislature - znufrii Jan 23, 06:16 6
    - This is what I presumed. Maybe I read it wrong. Maybe a certain committee approves the Atty General? -- nm - ty97 Jan 23, 06:17 5
      - I don't know the specific mechanics of it. -- nm - znufrii Jan 23, 06:18 4

        I don't recall it either, I was probably to busy trying to get into Barack Obama's pants. -- nm - znufrii Jan 23, 06:28

- I guess he felt it was important to have a woman. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 23, 06:12 6

    - helps him win over upstate voters -- nm - znufrii Jan 23, 06:17 4
      - *ding* I see this as his way of saying he's running for Gov. - krusty Jan 23, 06:41
      - I'm just shocked to discover Duchess County has a Dem rep. - ty97 Jan 23, 06:19 2
        
        DUTCHESS! -- nm - loosilu Jan 23, 06:21
        
        It still leans Republican, but she's been a moderate Rep. Hopefully she'll move further left once in the Senate. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 23, 06:20
