Good luck, Paladino.

New Yorkers like egotistical pols like Spitzer and Bloomberg, so I wonder how well the "ego" charge will work. I'm glad Paladino will talk about Cuomo's record at HUD.

I hope Mr. Paladino has lots of oppo research on Cuomo, cause lil’ Andy is going to be crawling right up his sphincter looking for you-know-what.

Fresh from having romped to a lopsided victory in the Republican primary for governor, Carl P. Paladino vowed Wednesday to attack Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo “like General Patton,” saying he would exploit Mr. Cuomo’s “immaturity” and his “ego.”

Mr. Cuomo has something in common with President Obama, “immaturity” and “ego.” Cuomo is like a ship without a rudder, he just checks the wind and goes with the flow. He stands for nothing, IMO.

Just watched Paladino wipe the floor with that Hit-And-Run DUI driver, Rick Sanchez on CNN.....

Damn!!! Wish I’d’ve been able to vote for him! Paladino is like fresh air.

This looks like it is going to get good and this state doesn’t need another Cuomo. This state is such a mess, but doesn’t everything go to hell with Demonrat party control. It would be a good issue to remind people how Demonrat controlled cities, states and, now, national government are run into the ground straight to hell. Show me where a Republican controlled area is a hellhole compared to Detroit, Memphis, Philadelphia, LA, San Fran and Kalifornia’s downfall along with NY.

You go Paladino. Take your bat and “bash” as many heads as you can.

God Bless you!

Good.

I hope he starts with how badly Cuomo screwed things up as HUD secretary under Klintoon, and some of the low income housing initiatives. He can start with this HUD/Cuomo 1999 press release:

“WASHINGTON - Housing and Urban Development Secretary Andrew Cuomo today announced a policy to require the nation’s two largest housing finance companies to buy $2.4 trillion in mortgages over the next 10 years to provide affordable housing for about 28.1 million low- and moderate-income families. “

http://archives.hud.gov/news/1999/pr99-131.html

Cuomo is a huge player in the housing market meltdown, and in the policies that created the mess at Fannie and Freddie.

I’ll tell you one thing, love him or hate him Paladino gets things done. For years there were toll gates on the I-90 leading to downtown Buffalo. Politicians would huff and puff for years about having the thruway authority remove the tolls. Finally Carl got involved and threatened to sue the authority and voila! the next thing you know the tolls were removed and guess what? Every politician within 50 miles was there to take credit when the bulldozers showed up to knock down the toll booths. Carl just smiled as everyone knew who it was that got it done.

And, echoing a widespread conservative argument, he asserted that Mr. Cuomo had “lit the fuse” on the nation’s housing crisis by pushing to lower lending standards at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the two quasi-public mortgage giants.

And he was helped along by Chris Dodd in the Senate, and Barney Frank in the house, pushing the legislation requiring banks to make those loans, and making it easy for the financial houses to take on the loans without risk.

Paladino can start with Cuomo’s tenure at HUDD and oversight of the subprime mortgage program:
