Sources close to Andrew Cuomo say he's ready to run for governor, but that won't announce his plans until March.

New York's state attorney general is set to take on Gov. Paterson in the Democratic primary, a source close to Cuomo told the Daily News.

Cuomo spokesman Richard Bamberger declined comment, but a source close to Cuomo told The News, "He will make an announcement at the end of March. And what he will say is that he intends to run for governor. ... He thinks there are a lot of problems in the state and he thinks he can help solve them."

That source is not alone. On Wednesday, a day after Republican Scott Brown won Ted Kennedy's Senate seat in Massachusetts, Stuart Applebaum of the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Workers Union urged Cuomo to run, saying Paterson "is not the strongest candidate."

Upstate party chief Larry Bulman went further, saying, "Let's not run a third-string quarterback if there is a first-string quarterback in the game. We should be talking to Andrew Cuomo."

"I'm focused on being attorney general," said Cuomo.

Though he's played coy on his intentions, the 52-year-old Cuomo - the son of former Gov. Mario Cuomo - has been laying the groundwork for months. He's crisscrossed the state over the past year, meeting Democratic leaders from Buffalo to Brooklyn and attending fund-raisers - for himself and many others.

There was no clearer sign of Cuomo's strategy than at Paterson's recent State of the State Address, where Cuomo appeared buoyant, confident and self-assured as poll-challenged Paterson tried to sell his plans.

Baruch College public affairs professor Doug Muzzio said Cuomo "is playing it smart" by waiting to announce his intentions. Muzzio said that gives him two more months to garner favorable publicity as attorney general while ducking upcoming contentious budget talks, which must be concluded by April 1.

"Assuming he's going to run, why announce now?" Muzzio asked. "He becomes a target. This makes perfect political and strategic sense."

Cuomo, who abandoned a primary race for governor against Carl McCall in 2002, was elected attorney general in 2006 on the same ticket as former Gov. Eliot Spitzer.

Insiders say Cuomo began seriously training his sights on the governor's chair after Spitzer resigned in March 2008 amid a hooker scandal.

As lieutenant governor, Paterson took over but, after the briefest of honeymoons, he stumbled badly and his ratings plunged. Paterson soon lost the confidence of many Democrats - including President Obama - and Cuomo emerged as the overwhelming choice.

In the latest polls, Cuomo has a 64% job approval rating compared with Paterson's 31%. Cuomo also has $16 million in his war chest, while the governor has just $3 million.

Everybody[url=http://sex.jelev.eu/videos+porno+de+ninas+virjenes+cojiendo+con+familiares.html]videos porno de ninas virjenes cojiendo con familiares[/url] heard rumours [url=http://sex.jelev.eu/white+guys+black+sluty+chick+porno.html]white guys black sluty chick porno[/url] about women[url=http://sex.jelev.eu/porno+tube+free+galleries.html]porno tube free galleries[/url] faking orgasms. Is that true? The majority of women have [url=http://sex.jelev.eu/hardcore+porno+video.html]hardcore porno video[/url] faked at least one orgasm, yet some fake almost all of them. Why do they do that? There[url=http://sex.jelev.eu/free++gay+porno+video+clips.html]free gay porno video clips[/url] are many reasons and the case is that there's [url=http://sex.jelev.eu/very+large+silicone+breasts+porno+sites.html]very large silicone breasts porno sites[/url] no one to blame.

Most females say that their partners ar[url=http://sex.jelev.eu/free+xxx+porno+pics.html]free xxx porno pics[/url] e not satisfied until the[url=http://sex.jelev.eu/%3Fs++you+porn+old++women+porno.html]?s you porn old women porno[/url] girls feels orgasm, there's only one way to make them feel happy and stop the[url=http://sex.jelev.eu/filme+porno+gratis.html]filme porno gratis[/url] exhausting procedure - fake.
Another [url=http://sex.jelev.eu/fotos+porno+de+hombres+gratis.html]fotos porno de hombres gratis[/url] reason is that a[url=http://sex.jelev.eu/sex+cartoons+-+free+sex+games+-+free+porn+sex+games+-+porno+sex.html]sex cartoons - free sex games - free porn sex games - porno sex[/url] typical female [url=http://sex.jelev.eu/porno+stars.html]porno stars[/url] doesn't seek for orgasm; she desires a sexual [url=http://sex.jelev.eu/free+gay+porno+video.html]free gay porno video[/url] relationship only because she wants intimacy. Still, such an attitude may make her partner feel bad.

[url=http://sex.jelev.eu/chicagocap+porno+video.html]chicagocap porno video[/url] Some women never really experience orgasm while making sex, but they want their partner to feel good about himself and her. Men usually expect women to have pleasure, that's why females have no other choice. They have to fake to have a good relationship.
Loss of interest, having sex only because the partner wants to, also makes women to fake. Most females talk to their friends about such things and while they know other women act it, they do so too, because it's an easier way to have a good relationship.
