Apparently the dumb@ss thought that the investigation would only turn up republicans.
What would you expect to find in a State run by Dims?
Cuomo has big ambitions-—he’d sellout his own mother for a leg up the political ladder.
Too bad Andy has the charisma and presidential presence of a boiled kale stem.
Excuse me, but Mayor DimBlasio has already declared the existence of Silver’s “integrity” so what’s the problem?
I bet he will sing too, and I look forward to hearing it with great interest. Someone with his kind of power will have things to say on more than just unknown, behind-the-scenes kinds of people.
LOLOL!
But seriously, a wannabe Mob hitman is what he reminds me of. He's certifiably crazy, I'm telling you right.here.right.now.
It was an indication of the mess he’s created for himself, that when Silver came out of the arraignment to face reporters he said, “ I HOPE I will be vindicated.”
In order to CATCH Republicans in some sort of wrong-doing, first there have to be Republicans present. When it comes to an investigation of NY state politics by the US attorney, just a little curious how they thought anybody but Democrats were involved at any level.
Maybe they could go after Bloomberg as the crypto-Republican? After all, he WAS registered as a “Republican” at one time.

Debt slaves for $ilver.
It must be serious when some of the top fishwrap says you (Cuomo) are in trouble.
I doubt it. He'll either
NY state is the equivalent of the former East Germany, without the Stasi. Its a one party state, actually run by the bureaucracy, that is steadily in decline, when eventually its one-horse economy (Wall Street) will collapse. Even many Republicans are basically Democrats, or accept their perpetual minority status because they gain too.
Some insiders are saying that Cuomo’s closure of the Moreland Commission was a trick. He didn’t want to be seen as taking down a fellow Dem, so he closed down the commission and put the Feds on the case instead. Supposedly, his public resistance to Bharara was all an act, and he privately encouraged him to go after Silver.
Because of the way politicians behave in New York, many people find this highly credible. Cuomo may have even put the Post up to attacking him, because he knows it rallies his base.
Well we’ll see. I hope for whatever reasons that he trills his azz off. He had entrenched, long-standing power in a state like NY and a city like NYC. It would be very interesting.
Let’s wait and see what he says when the plea bargaining begins. It should get very interesting.
I moved to Great Barrington,MA in 1989 from sunny southern cal.All I ever heard about(Albany affiliates)were “Shelly”Silver and Joe Bruno!!If these guys weren’t CROOKS,they SCREWED UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Isn’t this a great story? Love Goodwin.
I’m hoping this flood will rise to drown Cuomo.
He was separated at birth from Ted Bundy. Curtis Sliwa always calls him Andrew “Evil Eyes” Cuomo.
