Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo on Thursday blamed frustration with President Obama for the poor performance of Democratic candidates in New York, saying his victory fell short of a landslide because of discontent unrelated to the state.
“This was a real Republican wave that went across the country,” Mr. Cuomo said.
He added that voters were motivated by “dissatisfaction with a Democratic administration in Washington, premised on economic anxiety.”
“And I don’t think anything we were talking about had any relevance, frankly, that would change that one way or the other,” he said on.

That’s it Andy, change the narrative.
Give Pelosi a call, you two can compare notes.
He wants to challenge hillary
No Andy! Dems in NY lost because of two little words, SAFE ACT!
Every word that comes out of the Democrats’ mouths is calculated and political. Cuomo is distancing himself from the stench of Obama so that he can tie Hillary to him.
The Democratic primaries are going to be delicious!
All of them were in bed with “O” and his tribe of morons.
They don’t have a leg to stand on if they think they can cry ‘rape’ NOW!
The arrogant SOB forgot to mention......
IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE DEM BLOODBATH, HOUSE DEM CHAIR STEVE ISRAEL QUIT---AND SLAPPED-DOWN CUOMO...Israel slapped down arrogant New York Dem Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who, Israel suggested, could have done more to help Democrats running in New York.
“We had conversations several months ago with the governor’s staff about helping to organize and coordinate a campaign and I didn’t see the fruition to those conversations,” Israel told The New York Times.
===============================================
It was instructive that abortion-worshipper Cuomo was given virtually no airtime on NY broadcast TV. One brief shot showed his live-in---Braless Chef Sandra---hanging over his shoulder, dying to gain attention for herself.
Heh---history repeats itself---that's what broke up his marriage to a Kennedy---not showing enough deference to His Majesty.
Well, duh..
BINGO!
Yes! Major issue.
Ha! Ha! Ha!
They are all turning on Obama.
The DSCC guy sent out a chart on how all his candidates (losers) did better than Obama’s approval rating.
And with Martin O'Malley weakened as his successor lost to Hogan, he's in a stronger space to be the Non Hillary alternative.
How, exactly, are your policies different from Borat Obola's?
Our politics has a new meme and Cuomo raised its flag.
It's now, officially, no longer "Bush's Fault".
It's "obama's fault!!"
In a way this could be a shot at the Beast....NYers and the rest of the NE seemed to turn their backs on hildebeast.
For the record Im saying she aint gonna be the RAT nom. in 2016!
Cuomo shouldn’t be so modest, he had his part in it too!
