Have you been waiting for a more interesting race for governor than Cuomo v. Republican? The Working Families Party is allegedly looking to back a "superstar" for a gubernatorial candidate if Andrew Cuomo doesn't accept their support, and the Daily News is claiming that superstar will be 30 Rock star Alec Baldwin! Despite no actual statement or proof from the WFP that they're considering the actor, the Daily News is guessing that Baldwin has just the kind of leftist chutzpah the party is looking for in an independent candidate. They quote Baldwin telling the Times in 2006, "If I ever run for anything, the thing I would like to be is governor of New York." That means it's going to happen, right?!

Cuomo said he will "address that situation down the road" as to whether or not he would accept the WFP's support. Baldwin's spokesman attempted to shoot down the rumors, saying, "It's flattering that people recognize Alec's strong sense of the issues, political perspectives, popularity and passion for New York. But no, he has no current plans to run for office." But who knows if that means he's really not or if they're just hiding the information until the right time? Let the wild speculation continue!
