ALBANY — Former City Council Speaker Christine Quinn is joining Gov. Cuomo’s administration as a special adviser to the governor, the Daily News has learned.

Quinn will be a part-time staffer until mid-April when she finishes her stint as a resident fellow at Harvard University’s Institute of Politics, a source said.

After that, she will jump on board full-time.

Quinn headed up the Cuomo-created Women’s Equality Party in 2014 during the governor’s reelection campaign.

Somehow this slipped under the radar. This could have been a 5 page feature in the New Yorker...wonder why it only gets a coupla sentences in the Daily Nosewipe.

There was a lot of coverage of this on WNYC.

In fact, I think they even interviewed her on-air.

There was also a story about this in the NY Post a few weeks ago.

Photo needed, so we can decide if she’s a special advisor to Cuomo, or if she’s a very, very special advisor who will be working very, very closely with Cuomo 24/7.

Wow, the de-posted her wedding pic. Is there some kind of superstition about that?

Oh Christine—just ride into the sunset! I guess once you get a taste of public life, either you want more and more—or you either have a break down and say enough is enough. How did this woman ever become head of the city council? I never found her exceptionally bright. Was it because the City Council at the time wanted to show exceptional diversity and needed to choose a lesbian? I do know she rode on Tom Duane’s coattails through involvement in gay politics (Tom actually is a very nice guy btw.) Actually what really turned me against her was the way she sucked up to Bloomberg and the third term issue.

She was very effective and stonewalling pro-lifers while Speaker.

Say, isn't Cuomo a Catholic?

Cuomo picked her b/c she has the requisite Dummycrat organ.
No, not that one. Quinn has a (sniffle) "Heart of Gold" (sob).

Only problem is Big Pharma is running out of digitalis
to keep Dummycrat "Hearts of Gold" beating. Just
recently Mayor DeBlasio ran out---the effect on Blobbio's
cozy relationship w/ Al Sharpton was unfortunate.

"Al, I hate your lily-livered black guts. If I was Mayor
of Ferguson, I'd say 'shoot to kill' the little black punks."

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

Ut oh--- Sen Schumer runs out of digitalis.

"I dont give a s*** about poor black peoole."

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

Obama ran out just before he called his broker.

"I only ran for president to get my hands on billions of federal dollars.
Michele and I will live like royalty when I get outta this frickin' WH."

More red meat for the snarling "choice" types.
