Some insider stuff from a Noo Yawker....

Mario is not in the mob. His family is clean as a whistle. Matilda's family is, or at least was in it up to their chins. This is what kept Cuomo off any national ticket, and is what will keep him off the bench of any court.

This comes straight from I guy I knew in the 90s who had two jobs, he was a stock broker for the boys and he ran a titty bar on Staten Island. You don't run a skin joint in NYC without being a card carrying gf yourself. If he says someone is in the club, he's in the club.

I've heard that Mario has only one speech that he recycles. He'll be a perfect mate for zzzzzzzzzzzzKerry. We can all sleep during the campaign, then wake up (refreshed)to a BUSH RE-ELECTION! I'm dreaming!!!

For his part, Cuomo, 72, said, "I think they want someone who is younger, who doesn't come from the Northeast, who isn't as liberal as I am, and someone who could deliver a state."

Sanity has finally return to a man who has been teetering on the brink but I'm hoping Kerry isn't listening.

Now I'm not known to wear a tin-foil hat (sheeesh, who am I kidding!), but if the 'Rats pick Mario for VEEP, it will be proof positive to me that Hillary! is looking to sabotage the 'Rats in 2004 to make sure the spot is open in 2008. There is no other possible interpretation.

Allow me to be the first: "Mario! Azzenda me!..."

One of my favorite Simpsons was when Krusty lost his daughter's violin and had to go recover it from some Italian mobsters he gave it to in a card game.

He and Homer go to the villa to recapture it, and there are some cars in the background. Homer says the whole mafia is here, and Krusy points to each car-"The Travoltas, the Cuomos..."

Brilliant maneuver, two northeast socialists on the ticket, bound to be a winner.
