Cuomo considers options after DA decisions amid rumors of New York AG run

New York Daily News

Nearly six months after resigning from office on Aug. 23, Andrew Cuomo has taken a small step toward reentering public life, claiming that his name was cleared by multiple district attorneys who declined to press sexual harassment charges against the former New York governor despite finding credible allegations against him.

“If you do an honest summary, which is what I get from people on the street, I have been vindicated,” Cuomo told Bloomberg News on Friday. Until recently, he has largely avoided press contact while the criminal investigations and machinations have played out.

Cuomo’s claim of vindication comes despite a mountain of sexual misconduct accusations against him detailed in a state attorney general’s report in August and reinforced by a state Assembly report in November.

And his hint at a victory tour arrives amid rumblings that he may be eyeing a run for state attorney general.

We don't need to mess that up. She may be the only person that ever successfully prosecutes him.

What is the over/under that the "people on the street" are the aides he has left.

I admire his complete denial of reality, though. You don't see it to this degree that often. It's like, does he really, truly think this, or is it just an attempt at brazening through, since it worked all those other times?
