Even Governor Cuomo has quietly done all he can to make sure his own party is not in charge, and he is taking heat from the left for not putting party over the people of New York.
Democratic Leader Senator John Sampson Hopes to Overcome Image Problem
While Pedro Espada and company are gone, and its true the GOP majority really stands for little other than a block against far-left policies, it is best if Dean Skelos remain as majority leader.
As for the Governor, he will take some carping for not standing with Democrats, but he benefits by being seen as being able to transcend party for the greater good.
In the capital your very being is defined by the box checked on a voter registration form. That's now how real people see the world and Mr. Cuomo is playing this wisely.

I disagree mayor if Cuomo has national aspirations he will be placing Democratic support in jeopardy as a guy playing on the fence and one who is indecisive and let's others carry his water ...........not the stuff of great expectations .
Cuomo 2.0 is just a player who PLAYS , not a leader who leads !
This is the most serious strategic error Gov. Cuomo could possibly make for his political future concerning re-election and then pursuing an expected run for the Presidency. Hillary Clinton will likely run and at that point this Gov. is going to need all the friends he can muster and he's making a real blunder if he feels they'll be Republicans.

Mikey, it was Republicans that elected our current Muslim sleeper cell president to a second term. Stupid republican women to be more precise. Free no co-pay birth control and gay marriage were more important than our country. That and open boarders for all races as long as they are Latino.
Cuomo is not even close to being the pied piper that Barack is. Don't think that Cuomo could be elected nationally if he followed his own heart or his party.
