Mario Cuomo, at the services for Tim Russert.

I love Cuomo.

1. Isn't he wonderful?

I wish he'd run for President, but I always thought he'd have been crushed by the haters.

He's the best.

2. Yes, he *is* the best

If only he'd gotten on that plane in 1991

3. how did that come up at Russert's service?

Out of context it sounds little weird.

4. Russert worked for Cuomo

That was one of the first pieces of legislation they got passed.

If you get the chance to see this service in re-run, watch it. It's pure pleasure.

So many people really loved - not liked - the man.
