Gov. Cuomo blames a busy day job for new memoir's failure to fly off shelves (Book Flop)
NY Daily News ^ | 10/20/14 | CELESTE KATZ

It's not that Gov. Cuomo's book sales stink, he told reporters Monday -- it's just that his day job keeps him kind of busy when it comes to promoting it.

Cuomo's first memoir signing drew fewer than 150 people to the Barnes & Noble in Union Square last Wednesday.

His Amazon ratings aren't exactly a blazing constellation of five-star endorsements either.

INCONVENIENT FACTOIDS EDITED OUT: Cuomo failed to pass his bar exam FIVE times; he's just another not-so-bright politician looking to shore up his lack of self-esteem on the backs of an electorate he despises.

=================================================

Andy's political vision goes all the way from A-B....just another Loony Tune that found his inner moron, thanks to Boobamba. when he got into the WH----Boobamba yelled "olly, olly, octen free---all clear---come out, come out wherever you are." Every weirdo, and his mentally challenged cousin, tripped over themselves to come out of their little liberal man caves.

==================================================

ANDY'S VAGINA FIXATION IS NEVER SATED It's a "lifestyle" thing---the thought of "anything" coming between his access to a vagina----and his constant pathetic quest for genital pleasure----requires new ways to get it on.

Gov Andy appointed---Buddy Balzer, Nikita Genitalia and Sheldon Sheather to monitor his ups and (gasp) downs. Genital-sniffing is the only experience needed.

Big Pharma's putting out a nasal spray for the hazards of genital-sniffing the habit---sexually transmitted diseases of the nasal passages.

================================================

Abortion Worshipper Cuomo has a Master Plan---everybody knows in politics, to burnish one's bona fides in order to get higher office, you have to feed the snarling "choice" crowds more and more red meat.

Cuomo will demand medical reports and checkoffs for newborns w/ diseases----toddlers who have bow legs, 3-4 year olds who won't put away their toys, the ones who won't toilet-train. Next Cuomo will troll kindergartens for kids who don't color within the lines---all of them marked for post-birth abortions.

============================================

SCUMMO ALSO FORGET TO INCLUDE THIS IN HIS "LIFE OF THE POLITICALLY INSANE":

Moreland aftermath--Cuomo's Criminal Defense (lawyering up w/ campaign funds)

Gov Cuomo hired a high-priced criminal lawyer to represent his entire office WRT possible witness tampering--paid out of his $35 million campaign fund, because “the governor doesn’t want to have taxpayers pay for this." Cuomo's accused of shutting-down the Moreland Commission because corruption investigations were getting too close to him and his friends.....

Over the years, New York pols paid out more than $7 million in campaign funds to stay out of the pokey.....

Cuomo puts himself in the company of such convicts as former Sens. Carl Kruger and Pedro Espada, sleazy former Assemblyman Vito Lopez and Sen. Malcolm Smith, whose trial is pending.

Four years ago, then-candidate Cuomo pointed to criminal pols in his pledge to clean up Albany. Today, he’s using the very same tactics to defend himself.

So good to know it’s all for the taxpayer! (NY POST)

I might read it if he dished some Kennedy dirt. Like his wife, Kerry Kennedy, screwing some polo player behind his back, apparently at Joe Kennedy's suggestion. When the SHTF on that Andy ran off to Kenneth Cole's (his brother-in-law) house.

Andy's just a regular guy though. Did they ever find out what happened to the $65 billion HUD misplaced when Andy was at the helm?

This is even stupider than ‘writing’ a book about yourself that nobody’s interested in -

This delusional fool thinks if he can do ‘book tours’ like Hillary and be on tv tubes specializing in daytime women’s programs to promote his book, that it would be a resounding success.

D’oh, I already used ‘delusional’ and ‘fool’.

Ha. I live in NY state and did not even know the Gov wrote a book let along that sales were lagging.
I also don’t know where Obama was during Benghazi.
But I do know that John Kerry was in Vietnam.

Another vapid book by a politico. The last great book written by a US politician was Grant’s autobiography and he wrote that himself and towards the end of his life to leave his family some financial security. I mourn the trees killed for these vanity projects by politicians across the entire spectrum.

Customer reviews of his book on Amazon with a 5 is the best and 1 is the worst.

19 people rated it a 5, but 542 rated it a 1.

Typical comment:

Only reason I would by this book is to burn it on the capital buildings front lawn in protest. This man is the epitome of corruption. This book should be titled "how I helped flush NewYork down the s***ter"
