Clinton Goes Acourtin'
NEW YORK GOVERNOR AND ALLEGED SUPREME COURT CANDIdate MARIO CUOMO may not have been all that close to being measured for a black robe. A source involved in the White House search for a Supreme Court nominee says there was no background work under way when Cuomo took himself out of the running; in contrast, background checks were already well under way for other candidates. What this suggests is that Clinton may have simply been stroking the Governor's ego with his talk of Cuomo's fitness for the high court.
