During a competitive primary campaign, Cuomo's personality is more likely to harm him. He's a deeply paranoid man.
Yeah. I think Cuomo has done a good enough job in NY, but everything I've heard about him suggests a consummate politician, with a Machiavellian-Nixonian personality. Which in of itself is not a bad thing persay, but it could lead to problems when goes onto the national stage and gets, like every presidential candidate, vivisected by the national media. Plus, he's got HUD skeletons [edit: hah, R/R was thinking the same]
I'm not actually sure about Schweitzer's positions on issues. As a governor in a relatively small state, I think he gets to avoid a lot of crazy culture war issues.
