Andrew Cuomo is a heel that could never fill his dad’s shoes: Goodwin

Watching Andrew Cuomo’s resignation speech Tuesday, it was impossible not to wonder what his father, Gov. Mario Cuomo, would have thought.  

Mario was difficult and argumentative but smart and honorable. He was elected three times before losing in 1994 to George Pataki. Mario died on New Year’s Day in 2015, as Andrew was being inaugurated for his second term in the same office. Now the family business comes to a crashing end because the second generation could not match the integrity of the first.
