There is no more trustworthy source of journalism than Pro Publica for me, so when it report facts that make Cuomo look bad, I don't for even a millisecond think there is some biased attack against him going on. Cuomo has done some good things, but clearly his preparation and initial response was really poor. After realizing the scope of the problem, which was only as a result of not responding fast enough, he's been better. He's really good in front of the media, which colors the totality of his performance and how people judge him. Talking a good game is not the same as performing well in one, however, and most people weren't watching the game. Pro Publica covered it for those who didn't.

It makes sense that if you see the dismal U.S. numbers and conclude the federal government failed miserably, New York's numbers suggest a similar degree of failure with its government.
