In that case, what would possibly lead you to think of the two running together?

Are they both ambitious? Yes. But implying that Cuomo's economic and social policies are the same as Christie's is ridiculous.

not suggesting Cuomo as a running mate. Although a "GWB ticket" could be fun.

(78,249 posts)13. Well, in that case, no way.
Cuomo may be a bit of a DINO, but no way he's going full-on R.
Now, as a third-party ticket, this might have some legs.
edit: Besides, it's far too northeastern to work.

Raised public education budget and universal pre-k.
