He is absolutely incredible -- Obama level charisma, perhaps even better.

I have never seen someone that is both as expert a rhetorician as he is at the grunt work of policy. The man is filling potholes and making NYC a better place, all while modeling winning progressive campaigns.

He is gifted, and he is young. We get to keep him for a long time.
