Get out of New York!
That's
the message Empire State Governor Andrew Cuomo is sending to pro-life, pro-gun,
pro-traditional marriage conservatives.
The Albany
Times-Union first highlighted remarks the governor made during an interview
with Susan Arbetter on "The Capitol Pressroom." He was talking about a division
within the state's Republican Party and compared it to what's happening in
Washington, D.C.
"It's
a mirror of what's going on in Washington," he said. "The gridlock in Washington
is less about Democrats and Republicans. It's more about extreme Republicans
versus moderate Republicans."
And
then he told "extreme" Republicans where to go.
"Who
are they?" the governor asked. "Are they these extreme conservatives who are
right-to-life, pro-assault-weapon, anti-gay? Is that who they are? Because if
that's who they are and they're the extreme conservatives, they have no place in
the state of New York, because that's not who New Yorkers are."
