General Discussion

while I listened to Mamdami last night. The populist vibe was VERY similar. The positive theme, empowering people, yeah, it reminded me of Mario Cuomo from back in '84.

Mario Cuomo's '84 keynote address was the first time I had heard him speak. There was a lot of hype about it before hand, a very big build up. I wondered if he would live up to the hype, but he did and it was awesome. Here in AZ, we had a late season monsoon storm that night, LOTS of thunder and lightening. Oddly, the lightening strikes and thunder outside seemed to be magically well timed to points Mario Cuomo was making on my TV. "Wow!" I thought! "This guy is not only a great speaker, but the special effects are awesome!"

Listening to his sex harassing son lately, tsk tsk... what a disappointment. No where near his father's political savvy, just anger and sour grapes that people decided to hold him accountable for his horrible treatment of women in his political sphere. And then, running against a DEM after losing a primary? Unforgivable.
