FORMER Gov. Mario Cuomo, who last month urged Al Gore to run for president, now says he'd gladly back Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton if she decides to seek the Democratic presidential nomination.
"I would support her in a flash if she came into the race, absolutely," Cuomo told The Post.
"I believe she would have an excellent chance to defeat President Bush and, yes, I believe she would win," said Cuomo, who has called the current crowded Democratic field of candidates a "babble."

She has to run in 2004. He face is falling apart and her weight is out of control. In three years she will look nearly as bad as "Madam War" did -- she will be an hagard, ugly, fat cow. Even her Rosie type friends would be turned off.

This is it. I fear she is in.She has to go now. This cracks me up, because I bet Mario hates her guts, and she hates his. How pathetic. Giuliani must be eating this up. He knows he can crush her in 2006, but he's been silent. She has to sit here and wonder if Rudy will go after her, or not. If he does, she's toast. If he doesn't, she could wait until 2008. Is this great to watch, or what? Hillary! twisting in the breeze, not quite sure what to do. LOL

Is he calling her bluff? I just can't see Americans accepting Mrs. Clinton as Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces.

But, never underestimate the stupidity of the general public. If not for term limits, FDR would probably still be President, lying in state like Lenin. Four years of Jimmah Cartah, eight years of Billy Bob Pervert. Hillary! has plenty of automatic votes:
The womens' vote.
The minority vote.
The AARP vote.
The gay/lesbian vote.
The welfare/free handouts vote.
The socialized medicine vote.
The young and stupid college dupe vote.
The illegal alien vote FRAUD.
The dead people vote FRAUD.
Those who say she ain't dangerous: Hah. Think about all the automatic votes she has.

Hillary Clinton and Mario Cuomo, the ultimate political and ethical horror show. Many years from now (non-biased) historians may look at the likes of these two primates and wonder aloud if maybe between these two we will have found our ultimate Darwin Awards finalists. We here in New York long ago awarded Mario the P.S.T.F.U. Award. For those of you who don't live in New York that's the Please, Shut the f... up Award.
The Darwin Awards honor those who improve our gene pool... by removing themselves from it.

Of course he would jump on the Hillary bandwagon.
After becoming the next great hope for the Democrats after his masterful nationally-televised speech at the 1984 Demo Convention in San Francisco, Cuomo blew his chance to seize control of the Democratic Party when he didn't run in 1998. His star had faded by 1992, when Bill Clinton paid a tiny price for referring to Cuomo as "like a mafioso" in the Gennifer Flowers tapes.
Cuomo knows that the path to prominence in the Democrat world goes through the Clintons.

I guess he would jump on Hill's wagon cause he fell off the turnip truck and hurt his head when he was a baby. Mario is so 80's.

All records for negatives voter turnout would be smashed. She would go gloriously down to a stinging, painful, embarassing, political death. BRING IT ON!

On the positive side, her candidacy would ensure that there would be no Islamist terrorist events on our soil, at least until she was inaugurated. Then, all hell would break loose as the terrorists celebrated the return of their benefactors.

Of course you would, Mario. You're hoping she would appoint you to the Supreme Court. She might even have another Cabinet-level position for that lame son of yours.
To: FlyVet
You have just made it frighteningly clear just how dangerous she really could be. I underestimated her when she ran for the senate. I never thought she'd win that one either. It all comes down to the uninformed public. Wonder what she has on Cuomo? Why would he so vigorously endorse her after both Clintons abandoned his son in the governor's race?
To: freeperfromnj
Why would he so vigorously endorse her after both Clintons abandoned his son in the governor's race?That, my FRiend, is a very scary question. Suffice to say, IMHO, there is consummate evil at work here. The complete selling of souls, for the pathetic trappings available on this earth. It's insane. I almost want to feel sorry for them, because I FEAR my God, and what He would do to me if I took that route. Not pretty. No thanks, don't wanna go there.

Thank you for posting an unnecessarily excerpted article.Yes, The Hildabeaste as C in C is a scary thought.
The article speculates that Cuomo's encouragement of alboron was a shot at Dean.
I doubt his endorsement of The Hildabeaste was in the same vein.

I terrifyingly agree with you, but then again I said she would run 8 years ago and everyone called me a paranoid! Now we have to hold our breath seeing what the Evil One will do by filing deadline in November!
