Cuomo was RIGHT to shut down the lines with Irene (lest we forget that did DIRECTLY HIT NYC, albeit as a Tropical Storm and NOT the Category 2 Hurricane that was feared) and Sandy. The threat of flooding makes it obvious the subways have to be shut down then.This was WAY different. The subways, especially underground were DESIGNED to handle big storms like this, and the MTA re-did their plans after the 2010 fiasco to avoid a repeat of that. Cuomo overreacted in my view out of fear it would hurt him politically but instead, he violated Rule #1 of politics and it could prove costly to the Democrats because of that. |
