From the New York Times:
Mr. Cuomo is running against the state government, though it is controlled by his fellow Democrats, and he has laid out policies that put him on a collision course with some labor unions that have been reliable Democratic allies.
Already, the state teachers union, recoiling at Mr. Cuomo’s support of charter schools, has said it may not make an endorsement in the governor’s race.
And Mr. Cuomo’s fiscal policies, presented over the last week, could lead to a bitter budget fight if he is elected. He has rejected imposing tax increases and borrowing, meaning he would have to rely largely on spending cuts to close a yawning deficit next year.
