We are nearing the Eleventh Hour for our November 4th elections, and I wondered if Weingarten would pull another backdoor, pro-Cuomo robocall.

I’m still watching for it.

After all, it is only November 1st.

What Weingarten is doing is excusing New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s October 29, 2014, statement about New York’s public schools as being a “public monopoly” that he plans to “break.”

And she is being careful not to mention Green Party candidate Howie Hawkins as a viable option. In an October 31, 2014, Capital New York article, Weingarten readily excuses Cuomo’s “monopoly” comment as “campaign rhetoric” and tries to position Republican Rob Astorino as the only other voter option. She tells readers not to vote for Astorino because his “record is not pro-public employee.”

So, is this supposed to mean that Cuomo is “pro-public employee”? He publicly declared that he plans to “break” public schools…
