I’ve just read your piece on Cuomo and the “free college for all” scholarship. As a young New Yorker who’s thinking of joining the Dems, do you think we should replace him in the primary for next year? If so, which candidate(s) do you think we should support?

If we can manage it, yes. Cuomo has certainly shown that he doesn’t regard pre-nomination promises as binding (see, Working Families Party), so it’s hard to see how striking a deal would help.

And it really depends on whether we can find someone with heft – i.e, preferably someone who’s won statewide office, someone who can raise the money it’ll take, and who doesn’t have any massive skeletons in their closet – who’s willing to take a run at him.
