ALBANY – Gov. Cuomo refused to jump on the Hillary for president bandwagon today.
Asked if he would support Hillary Clinton for a 2016 White House bid, Cuomo would only say, “It’s a long way away.”
Cuomo is himself a potential Democratic presidential contender in four years but trails badly in polls behind President Obama’s secretary of state.
“There’s no doubt that she is incredibly popular, she has great experience,” Cuomo told The Post’s Fredric U. Dicker on Albany’s Talk 1300 AM radio today about the former first lady and ex-U.S. senator from New York. “She’s the person who’s going to make the decision.”
A recent Siena College poll showed most New York voters think Clinton should run for the office her husband held for two terms, while most think Cuomo shouldn’t.
