I'm watching Cuomo's State of the State speech...

and if it wasn't Cuomo assuming credit for everything, it could be a pretty good one.

But, I've got to run out now, but I notice so far he hasn't mentioned one negative thing that has to be dealt with. After all the great news about how well we're doing, will he bother to bring up a few nagging problems?

(Oops... he just mentioned some poverty pockets. But most of it was to brag about past successes-- even if those successes were mostly due to national economic upturns.)

I would really, really have loved it if Silver was arrested before the speech.
