Schneiderman wants Cuomo's job. He thinks he's another Spitzer without a trust fund to pay for hookers. However, he has his own closet full of skeletons, and more enemies than Spitzer (hard to top). He's been toning down his prosecutorial efforts toward real criminals, hoping to get more support from Wall Street, where Trump has more than enough friends of the moment (as long as the markets flourish). Don't expect Schneiderman to take on any seemingly low hanging fruit political targets. He hasn't forgotten how that strategy sank Spitzer.
And now that Cynthia Nixon, lesbian Democrat, has announced she's contemplating running for the governorship, he just got cut off from the donation and volunteer powerful LGBT community in Manhattan and Brooklyn, he has a problem he never anticipated to keep him busy. Also lingering in his political future is Bella Abzug's granddaughter who wants his job. Even tho grandma was a leading Democrat, Lizabeth is a 5 Towns Republican with much more support than he has from the statewide LE community and the very wealthy Republicans of Nassau County who can't stand and don't trust Schneiderman. The same type of people who got Rockefeller and Pataki their governorships. Lizabeth's long term goal.
NY politics is a tangled web. No less of a problem is the swelling rejection of Democrats throughout the City thanks to corrupt Mayor Bill and his touting of his wife Charlene as his future replacement as he nepotistically calls for her to get a salary for her nonappointed, non elected "duties." Her ties to the nursing home sale scandal is the talk of the town.
And as for being tough, when Schneiderman attempted to come down on the private security industry, claiming it was suborning local law enforcement (meaning special privileges for bribes), he couldn't back off fast enough when confronted with both leading LE community and industry responses. He's as tough as Spitzer, and Spitzer hasn't stopped whining over his own hypocrisy destroying his career, not to say all the enemies the both have made. There isn't enough time for the damage control this fool desperately needs to keep his job or find another political position. The backroom boys want his topknot. He should grow a man bun so his scalp won't be itching that much after the fact. Yeah, he's another "steamroller" joke who also wears black socks. Maybe he'll be able to get a job painting bicycle lanes in the five boroughs.
Perhaps she had a busy social life prior to the termination of the marriage?
