When the State Legislature appointed Thomas DiNapoli to succeed the disgraced Alan Hevesi as state comptroller four years ago, Governor Eliot Spitzer jumped aboard his high horse and denounced Mr. DiNapoli as unqualified.

Mr. Paladino has cheapened the campaign with bigotry and aimless swagger. Even if Mr. Paladino had chosen to be a serious candidate, his “platform” is little more than sputtering threats to cut and close and freeze.
[Mr. Cuomo] has a strong record in office over the last four years and has proposed...
