Andrew Cuomo for President?

The New York Governor's recent victory with the passage of the Marriage Equality Act in his state has people talking about a presidential run in 2016. Indeed, Mr. Cuomo has managed to vault over all the other emerging leaders in the national Democratic Party.

What a minute. What other emerging leaders? The Republican Party keeps tripping over itself with all of the relatively young and new hopefuls crowding the field, as well as those--like Jeb Bush--who wait patiently in the wings. But among Democrats the field is thin, and old. Think Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and John Kerry.

A new breed needs to emerge. Here's to Governor Cuomo for taking the lead.
