With all due disrespect, itβs long past time for Andrew Cuomo to go away.
Like the final hanger-on at the bar after last call and the pointed flickering of the lights, Cuomo has overstayed his welcome in public life β by a lot.
Yet he still doesnβt get it: This week, less than a month after New Yorkers decisively rejected him, he got back to inflicting himself on the Cuomo-weary public.
On Monday, his press office (yes, he still has one) sent out the ex-govβs open letter bemoaning the Democratic Partyβs βphilosophical schizophreniaβ and offering stale nostrums about how it must quit with the slogans and βfigure out how to deliver resultsβ to win over voters β while not-so-subtly implying that he just might be the man for the job.
Hours later, he sat down with former Gov. David Patterson on WABC to whine that he wouldβve won if it werenβt for Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa.
βHe cost me the election,β Cuomo moaned; a Sliwa drop-out wouldβve βchanged the whole dynamicβ of the contest.
As ever, it wasnβt Andrewβs fault β nothing ever is; of course he couldnβt accept any real blame, let alone apologize or even acknowledge a single failing of his own.
At least Sliwa got the nomination of a real (albeit ramshackle, at least in NYC) political party; Cuomo barely bothered to campaign during the Democratic primary, and was rewarded for his non-efforts with a trouncing by Zohran Mamdani.
We have to wonder how the race mightβve proceeded if Cuomo never put his hat in the ring: The Democratic primary certainly wouldnβt have been all about who could best stop Andrew.
Plus: In the general, Cuomo lost to Mamdani by nine points; Sliwa only drew seven.
Of course, Andrew Cuomo wonβt let mere math stand in the way of his continued drive to revive his political career despite the electorateβs clear wishes.
A careerist poser whose legacy includes a deadly nursing-home order that killed countless elderly during COVID, criminal-justice βreformsβ that sent disorder in the city soaring and a long history of dubious ethics, Cuomo isnβt the solution to his partyβs problems; heβs a cautionary tale on how to run down the Democratic brand.
Though he does unite moderates and lefties on one thing: Both sides are eager to see him in the rear-view mirror.
Yet there he remains, still sending out emails with the βPublic Schedule of Gov. Cuomoβ despite his status as a disgraced private citizen.
How many times must the voters reject him before Cuomo gets the message?
Take a hint, Andrew: Hit the bricks.
