In Cuomo's 84 DNC speech he sounded like a bit of a protectionist. I wonder if he would have vetoed NAFTA.

I got those vibes too...  I feel like he might've, but if memory served it past by a wide (70ish plus) margin, at least in the Senate...not sure how NAFTA passing over his veto would affect the midterms and re-election.  Although perceived weakness here might be blunted by ramming through a successful healthcare bill

NAFTA was unpopular. If he vetoed NAFTA, it would have helped him.

Still, the perceived weakness of his control over his own party might've hurt, and he probably wouldn't lift a finger to help those who voted for it in the midterms.  All that means a much more powerful Newt Gingrich and fewer donors come 96
