I hope if he is guilty of any of these assault claims, he will step aside now and let someone else take over. Maybe one of his current Chief Deputies. (Till whenever the legislature agrees on one -- and the Senate is controlled by the R's.)
ON UPDATE: Chris Hayes says that Gov. Cuomo is going to be calling for Schneiderman's resignation.
