From the Daily News:
Tensions between Gov. Paterson and Attorney General Andrew Cuomo have reached frosty new levels with the recent pick of a state Democratic boss.
Paterson tapped Nassau County Democratic Chairman Jay Jacobs to replace June O’Neill, a veteran of former Gov. Mario Cuomo’s administration.
A Paterson ally described Cuomo – the governor’s potential 2010 primary rival – as “off-the-charts angry” about the nod.
It’s not Cuomo’s allegiance to O’Neill that’s the problem.
Paterson’s camp believes it’s Jacobs’ close ties to Nassau County Executive Tom Suozzi.
