1. I really respect both Andrew & Chris. They both are strong willed people & turn people off once in

a while, but I know I'm not alone with how I feel, especially for Andrew. People can't help compare the two politicians who are on our TV every day with updates on the status of the virus. One shines with honesty and direct talk, & the other is, well, campaigning. I try to listen to Chris's radio show on Sirius. He's similar to his brother with the plain talk. Ha. Yesterday he was asking what happened to America since WWII. He reminded us that when we needed something, the factories were told what they had to make instead of their normal products. Why aren't we making masks? PPE. All the things people need but we can't buy. Something to really think about!

2. More than ever right now, I'm grateful to be a New Yorker.

There are times in the dead of winter when the snow isn't stopping and the temps reach yet another record low, that I'm not so sure. But right now I'm feeling really fortunate that Andrew Cuomo is governor - and not everyone has felt that way because of the inevitable comparison to his father. But right now he's being tested and has really shown the leadership that we need. Not only that, but i'm nowhere near the City, I'm Upstate in the Northeast and this county had it's very first coronavirus death just last week - it made the headlines. And you're right, we need to step up because this is as tough as any war. My grandmother worked for the Office of Price Administration during WWII and I often wonder what she would think...

3. After today's news, what you said is more relevant than ever

I'm just grateful that the governor continues to speak out. It's hard to believe during this national emergency, but plain common sense, let alone direction, is something we need pretty desperately right now.

4. Yes, and we aren't getting any common sense or direction from the WH, so we'll take it from the

Governor of NY and apply what we can from NY to our own State. It's a damn shame all the WH can give us is continuing BS, Lies, & medical quackery!
