Adding some fun to the expected activities—like nominating Andrew Cuomo for Governor— at the NY State Democratic Convention in Rye was Guardian Angel Curtis Sliwa, but as his alter-ego "King Cuomo." According to City Room, "Mr. Sliwa derided Mr. Cuomo for the political advantages he has enjoyed as the son of Mario M. Cuomo and satirized Mr. Cuomo’s aversion for extended dealings with the press... Mr. Sliwa said, 'From now on, scribes, understand this: I will make myself available on a random basis for those of you who choose to be sycophants, toadies and lackeys.'" And when he was hauled out by security, he said, "Get your hands off--do you not know I am your king?"
