1. Good choice! Schneiderman's been increasingly on my radar...

and although it wouldn't surprise me if he runs for governor at some point, it would a bit if he primaried Gov Cuomo and last I knew Cuomo has said he's running for a third term, although I suspect that may, at least partially be, to keep a high profile to make a try for president.

Although my 1st choice for a NY presidential candidate would be Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, both Schneiderman and Cuomo would be decent 2nd choices if they were to run.

I must say that this part from the article gave me a laugh ...
State Republican Party spokeswoman Jessica Proud accused Schneiderman of having “completely abused his office for political purposes.”
Her comment is a classic Trumpster diving Republican's 'deflection' and definitely a case of 'the pot calling the kettle black'.

The fact is that Schneiderman's very good at his job and Trump's done plenty of probably illegal BS to get his attention.
