Two polls have come out in recent days that highlight the state of politics in New York against the backdrop of the national political scene. A Quinnipiac University Poll finds voters feel New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is a better leader than President Obama.

    Governor Cuomo is riding a tidal wave of popularity created with the same-sex marfriage issue. People that were affected, ones that normally don’t repsond to polls, are weighing in to show support to the man who accommodated thier wishes. There is an artificial spike because of this.

    Our hopes grow when President Obama was elected, we thought change was now inevitable.
    We just didn’t realize just how damaged are country was. Politics was the only thing important; it has infected The Supreme Court, the Congress, schools, hospitals , everything. What we believed to be small groups of extremists have infiltrated our nation, they want to decide what we can and can’t do. And we have let them. Corporate welfare, tax cut for the wealthy and war are good; it will all trickle down. Spending money on health care, education, job training, and the country’s infrastructure are bad.

    Governor Cuomo has been able till now to woo or scare the yet smaller element in NYS. What will happen tomorrow? We will just have to wait and see.
