56. I wouldn't consider phrases like "fair game" to be constructive, or criticism, for that matter.

LOL Trump has openly stated that he wants Cuomo to win and all of MAGA Prairie Gates Thursday #95

I'm shocked! n/t returnee Thursday #7

I am not too crazy about personal qualities of either Adams or Cuomo, but there is a prohibition on DU Glorious bastard Thursday #8

Adams was running against the Democratic candidate, Cuomo still is muriel_volestrangler Thursday #9

I also spoke out against bashing Mamdani. Glorious bastard Thursday #18

Andrew Cuomo is a centrist, running as an independent. He is not a Democrat. Emile Thursday #19

He is a centrist, he is running as an independent, and he is a Democrat Glorious bastard Thursday #22

Sorry to disappoint you. He gave up on the democratic party and is now an independent. Emile Thursday #23

Every source I could fond lists his party affiliation as Democratic. Glorious bastard Thursday #24

When he lost the democratic primary to Zohran Mamdani. Emile Thursday #25

He did not. He lost the primary, as some Democrats occasionally do, but he remains a Democrat. Glorious bastard Thursday #34

If you think he's still a Democrat, you go with that. Do you think Cuomo is a better choice than Zohran Mamdani? Emile Thursday #37

Very few Democrats think Cuomo is not a Democrat. Glorious bastard Thursday #38

That's why he has an I by his name on the ballot, because you say he's a democratic politician. Okay Emile Thursday #40

Again, very few Democrats say he is not a Democrat. What I say is immaterial to this fact. Glorious bastard Thursday #44

Well, I don't consider him a Democrat anymore. He left the party. Emile Thursday #45

That's fine. But I can find no confirmation of him leaving the Party anywhere. Glorious bastard Thursday #63

Well it's not that hard to find. Andrew Cuomo Emile Thursday #68

Not difficult at all. It is just as easy to find his party affiliation. A Democrat, according to all available sources. Glorious bastard Thursday #80

He is not the Democratic nominee. nt mr715 Thursday #47

I am not disputing that. But he is still a Democrat. Not such a difficult distinction. Glorious bastard Thursday #78

Labels mr715 Thursday #85

The consequence of losing a primary is losing a primary, not losing party affiliation. Glorious bastard Thursday #89

Wrong, he lost his party affiliation when he decided Emile Thursday #92

Find me a single official record that says Cuomo is not a Democrat, and then we can talk some more. Glorious bastard Thursday #96

Look up a sample ballot for the NYC Mayoral election Quiet Em Yesterday #97

He is a Democrat. It's like when Katie Porter lost to Schiff in the Nixie Yesterday #100

Cuomo is running against the Democratic nominee as an Independent ms liberty Thursday #29

The "therefore" appears contrary to the DU Terms of Service. Glorious bastard Thursday #39

Nope SunImp Thursday #49

I wouldn't consider phrases like "fair game" to be constructive, or criticism, for that matter. Glorious bastard Thursday #56

Cuomo is not currently an elected official, and this is an election period ms liberty Thursday #59

Here is the rule Quiet Em Thursday #67

"Do not post support" doesn't make posting contempt obligatory. Glorious bastard Thursday #73

You know, Cuomo went full blown MAGA today on a radio show Quiet Em Thursday #74

As the person who co-wrote the TOS, I can weigh in on this EarlG Yesterday #108

Correct. Cuomo clarified very well at last night's debate Nixie Thursday #33

Who cares what Cuomo "explained" mr715 Thursday #50

Exactly, he left the democratic party and is irrelevant. Emile 22 hrs ago #110

I've noticed that MorbidButterflyTat Thursday #55

Nothing wrong with centrism. mr715 Thursday #57

+1, And that "centrists" aren't Democrats. That's how far down the rabbit Nixie Thursday #62

Cuomo decisively lost the Democratic nomination Prairie Gates Thursday #79

Also, Cuomo didn't try mr715 Thursday #84

By continuing to run after the Democratic voters rejected him, Cuomo has disgraced himself and his father's memory Prairie Gates Thursday #90

Via context mr715 20 hrs ago #111

Cuomo isn't a "centrist" - he's a sexual harasser collaborating with the rapist Trump. muriel_volestrangler Yesterday #99

Andrew Cuomo built a reputation as a centrist Democrat. Emile Yesterday #105

Cuomo is, and Adams was (and is now supporting) an 'independent/third-party "spoiler" candidate' muriel_volestrangler Thursday #30

There is a fine line between supporting a third party candidate and objecting to bashing a Democrat. Glorious bastard Thursday #36

you are posting misinformation: Celerity Thursday #69

Our lying eyes. nt mr715 Thursday #70

I was referring to the three candidates mentioned in the OP header. Glorious bastard Thursday #75

Adams (who was, BTW, a Rethug at one point) is not running against anyone, he dropped out Celerity Thursday #82

This doesn't make sense on so many levels, Glorious bastard Thursday #88

Again you are not addressing my specific calling out of your misinformation, and now you are attempting to muddy Celerity Thursday #94

If I see bashing or 'RW hysteria' around here, I'll be sure to take note of it. Torchlight Thursday #11

Any negative comments about any Democrat are fodder for right wing media. Glorious bastard Thursday #20

Please stop policing members of du Keepthesoulalive Thursday #27

What? Glorious bastard Thursday #32

Exactly. There seems to be a huge double standard. Bernie Sanders Nixie Thursday #35

As you know full well, Sanders doesn't run against Democrats in general elections muriel_volestrangler Yesterday #101

Cuomo is a pervert that got ran out of office, why are you defending him? questionseverything Yesterday #106

I am not attempting to censor your speech. Keepthesoulalive Thursday #41

It is DU administrators who tell members what is acceptable. They have every right to do so. Glorious bastard Thursday #43

I am aware of the rules Keepthesoulalive Thursday #46

You may not require my gatekeeping, but it couldn't hurt. Glorious bastard Thursday #76

As I said if they don't like what I'm saying Keepthesoulalive Thursday #93

Why don't you ask the Administrators if Cuomo is a Democrat. Emile Yesterday #103

DU administrator here EarlG Yesterday #109

Thank you for weighing in. mr715 20 hrs ago #113

Simply alert on the post. Torchlight Thursday #31

Why would I do that? I am here to hear people out, not shut them up. Glorious bastard Thursday #42

I do not want SEX PEST Cuomo to win. democrank Yesterday #107

As far as Sliwa SocialDemocrat61 Thursday #13

Sliwa seems to be motivated mr715 Thursday #53

Mamdani is the Democratic Candidate obamanut2012 Thursday #15

Curtis Sliwa mr715 Thursday #54

Cuomo isn't the Democratic nominee iemanja Thursday #58

You are correct on all counts. Glorious bastard Thursday #64

So I'm supposed to act favorably toward a sexual predator? iemanja Thursday #66

Absolutely not. Glorious bastard Thursday #86

The Andrew Cuomo Campaign Is All in on MAGA Influencers Celerity Thursday #72

Is Andrew Cuomo no longer a registered Democrat? Glorious bastard Thursday #81

He may well be, but that's irrelevant, as Cuomo lost the Democratic primary and is now running as sore loser/ Celerity Thursday #87

As a spoiler candidate, he cannot be supported. As a Democrat he cannot be bashed. Glorious bastard Thursday #91

No, you still don't get it. He is running against the only official Democrat - therefore he is not a Democrat muriel_volestrangler Yesterday #98

I refute it thus: mr715 20 hrs ago #112

Yes. mr715 Thursday #65

That's music to my ears! herding cats Thursday #71

The calculus for the endorsement most likely has to do with NYC's uniformed services. lapucelle Yesterday #104

That is probably a plus for Mandomi doc03 Thursday #77
