by the fact that Cuomo's being primaried by an ( I'm assuming) anti-CCSS opponent ( law professor Zephyr Teachout).

Seems like we're seeing the beginnings of a a real realignment here. It may be less about "education" than it is about the smug elitist attitude of much of the DEM party leadership:

upper-middle class prep school brats who think they know what's good for the little people.

And what's "good for the little people"... they themselves will avoid like the *plague*.
