ALBANY — The New York State Capitol looks like the setting of an old-time horror movie, with blood red turrets, an ink-black roof and enough stone for an emperor’s tomb. Theodore Roosevelt, one in a long line of oversize personalities — and egos — to occupy that post. Any script about Albany, of course, would have Mr. Cuomo at its heart. A famous micromanager with a taste for political combat, Mr. Cuomo is an oversize presence in the capital, and seems to be here for the long haul. He won a third term decisively in November, and has sworn again and again that he’s not running for president.
