The rumors are starting on who will be Andrew Cuomo's running mate....One rumor had a pairing with Monroe County Executive Maggie Brooks, but observers think that unlikely.
One thing Cuomo cannot do is pick someone like Eliot Spitzer did....Someone who fits some kind of demographic profile and won't upstage the top of the ticket. If Spitzer taught us anything there is a need for substance in the number two spot. While there are many likeable aspects to David Paterson, it is clear he was clueless upon taking office and was self undulgent in the way legislators in a one party town like NYC can be.
A county executive makes sense or a veteran of strong mayor governance. Administrative ability is important but so is that grounding you get only from have to face the voters and answer to the voters. We don't need anyone from the Legislature.....If Cuomo is indeed a shoo-in, he had best pay serious attention to the number 2 slot.

Does Maggie have connections to a union or some other kind of partisan enterprise? If so, by all means, lets have Lt Gov Maggie. Then when Cuomo tells us the truth, we can get rid of him and git Maggie. That'll take us two or three more years down the road to ruin. Just think of how many public servants and teachers will be able to retire in that length of time. We owe it to 'em to keep marching down this yellow brick road.
It does make you wonder who would want this job. Its like looking for a new captain after the Titanic already sliced the iceberg. Do they actually think the lies will be believed that much longer? I guess some will always believe.
I'm available --- LOL.
The Maggie Brooks is Mary Donohue, the Republican ex-Lt Gov. Look at that photo. That's her! I tell you she had another couple of plastic surgeries and she is back as a Donkey. Same hair, same clothes, same ageless face. Looks like AJR plus an indeterminant number of years minus twenty pounds. That's Mary Donohue. I'm surprised the Donkeys would try to shove this past us. We're smarter than this.
But then again she looks like Chuckie's little mouthpiece Gillibrander too. Same hair, same clothes, same words....
