45. Astorino Campaign Prods Cuomo Into Commenting On Moreland

The campaign of Republican gubernatorial hopeful Rob Astorino spent the day — with some relish — prodding Gov. Andrew Cuomo into making a public appearance to discuss The New York Times story detailing his involvement in the Moreland Commission To Investigate Public Corruption.

A sarcasm-laden statement from Astorino spokeswoman Jessica Proud expressed faux concern for the governor’s whereabouts.

“Is anyone else concerned that New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has gone missing for the past three days? Has an All Points Bulletin (APB) been issued? The governor’s whereabouts have been unknown since…well…since that blockbuster, A1 New York Times story came out on Tuesday about interference with a New York anti-corruption commission,” she said. “It’s an unusual thing, a governor going missing for three days. Isn’t it? Should someone be alerted?”
