In reply to the discussion: Bronx senator calls on 'Monster' Cuomo to resign amidst new harassment allegations [View all]DFW
(54,369 posts)33. I remember Jerry getting primaried back then
He was pretty amazed, and so were many in his district. Jerry has been a tireless champion for both Democratic causes and his district. He told me that a few disgruntled members of one certain ethnic group (I'm not saying which) in his district had a beef with him about not being deferential enough to their wishes. They decided to finance a primary challenge against him, something he had not had to face in a long time. He beat it off, of course--the people in his district know him by now. It was meant as more of a nuisance harassment, and none of the parties involved were under any illusions to the contrary.

I caught that. I guess in her mind no investigation could be impartial, so Cuomo should just go....

I'm not a fan of him, either, but he's grown into the job in the last few years.....

It isn't appropriate to ask women subordinates 1/2 my age if they like affairs with older men?

Cuomo made some inappropriate choices. Trump's assaults/ harassment of women was much worse, imo.

Spitzer, Weiner have all been disgraced, but they are not in "monster" category. Ask Cosby.
