Calling Cuomo and Schweitzer DINOs and being for Hillary Clinton and Kirsten Gillibrand is lolzy.

Cuomo and Schweitzer have positions incompatible with the Democratic agenda. Clinton and Gillibrand do not.

What official position of Cuomo's are you referring to? Schweitzer is on the record about guns, sure.

The man is a fiscal conservative.

Cuomo isn't on the record for advocating anything that would be contentious in a Democratic primary like Schweitzer and gun control. He's continuously toed the line in his governance as a Clinton-esque centrist, but he wouldn't campaign on anything fiscally conservative. The left would be right to point to his record, but that's nowhere near the same problem as running for the nomination as, say, Huntman's views on climate change or Brian Sandoval and abortion.

Cuomo is just going to try and paint himself as Slick Willy's protege.

Why should Democrats support that approach when Slick Willy's wife, a true blue liberal, is available and by far more electable?

Of all the candidates named above, Schweitzer beats them all hands-down. But Elizabeth Warren would be better.

Only a Kentucky liberal would say that. Again, Schweitzer is not a Democrat. He is incompatible with the 21st century Democratic agenda.
