It might have to do with his response to the Princesses Hunger Games tour, err State of the State tour:
"Yesterday, Governor Cuomo gave a remarkable speech. It was a speech so dishonest at its core that it must not go unchallenged.
Seventy years ago, President Harry Truman put a plaque on his desk. It became famous. That plaque read, ‘The Buck Stops Here.’
It was Truman’s way of saying, ‘I am responsible. Where others shirk responsibility, I, ultimately, accept it for the actions and inactions of the government I lead.’
Andrew Cuomo is no Harry Truman -- obviously. Were he to have a plaque on his desk, it might very well read, ‘The Buck Starts Here.’
New York has a property tax crisis, and it’s not new. The reason it has one -- and there’s no argument here -- is that Andrew Cuomo’s state government pushes ever-increasing mandated costs onto counties, towns, villages, and school districts that simply cannot pay for them.
In Westchester County, for example, where I have never once raised the county tax levy, despite Cuomo’s rising costs, more than 80 percent of the property tax revenue we bring in goes to Albany. In some counties, that figure is over 100 percent.
Think about that: There are counties in this state that have to spend every property tax dollar they raise to pay for Andrew Cuomo’s mandates -- and then some.
So to hear this governor attacking local school districts and municipalities yesterday for overspending -- to see him shirking his responsibilities with no trace of shame -- was remarkable, indeed.
New York’s middle class has been rocked by this governor, And these crazy spending and failing pay-to-play corporate welfare schemes are making things worse by the day.
Governor Cuomo also talked about extending and paving a hiking trail across New York yesterday (while our roads and bridges crumble.) Doesn’t he know that he’s already built a trail; a middle-class exodus trail that runs from Upstate and Western New York all the way to the Carolinas, Florida, and Texas.
If you really want to help New York’s middle class, Governor Cuomo, start taking responsibility for what you’re doing to destroy it."

More from Rob Astorino. Astorino for Governor 2018!
Astorino Blames Cuomo For Indian Point Closure, Saying 'The Joke's On Us'
The closures come after Entergy reached a settlement agreement with New York State.
As part of the shutdown agreement, the state has agreed to drop all legal challenges against the plant.
"This lacks transparency," Astorino said. "It was three people in a room - the governor, Riverkeeper and Entergy. They got to cut a good deal for themselves while leaving tax and ratepayers to hold the bag. The joke is on us."

Yea sort of. It also showed Chris Crispycream to be the asshat that he is by not getting behind Rob with the governors associations cash.
It showed an underfunded man who had almost no name recognition come closer then he should have all things considering
It also showed upstate voters don't turn out like they should.
The next time around with more $$ and name recognition he has a shot and maybe a little boost from the new management over at the DOJ.
