Cuomo, in his penultimate daily briefing...

Just praised the NY press corps for their questions during his daily briefings, said they did a public service holding him and his staff accountable. "I want to thank you on a personal level. You have my deepest respect."

Can you even imagine numb nuts saying something like that to the White House press?

Let's hope things continue in this way.

I have a friend who tunes in to him everyday lol, I'll have to tell her tomorrow is the last one. She'll be devastated.

They became a little hard to find, not aired on TV any more, but if I notice it's 11:30 am, I've caught them on YouTube or the NYT web page.

His staff is really sharp too.

I'm not sure what outlet she represented. (The briefing was in NYC, not Albany.) It was one of those 'next career move' ones: running for president, VP etc. She mentioned increased international attention, popularity, et al, including the Cuomosexuals. Someone at the table with him couldn't control a laughing snort at that moment.
