Andrew For Mayor?

See Andrew Cuomo: a famous name, a cabinet-level resume, a million bucks in his campaign account, and -- for all his much-noted flaws -- a serious political talent.

But if Robert F. Kennedy Jr. enters the race for State Attorney General, it's hard to see how Cuomo can compete. Cuomo's name isn't as big. His resume isn't as perfectly suited for the job. And the money hardly matters.

Chatter this morning has led us in a different direction: The field of Democratic Mayoral candidates is weaker than once thought, with Bill Thompson's withdrawal. Anthony Weiner's unexpected strength demonstrates the opening for a candidate who shares Anthony's profile, but is much better known.

Andrew just has to move to Queens, quick.
