A revealing question, and a reassuring answer (if it’s the truth), asked by BusinessWeek to New York attorney general Andrew Cuomo:

Q. There are stories saying the pay-to-play scandal may be expanding beyond New York State, and Democrats elsewhere may be involved. Are you feeling any heat from within the Democratic Party to back off?
Cuomo: No. To be clear . . . no one is above the law.

Of course, if Cuomo was feeling heat from Democrats to back off, it’s not clear he would tell BusinessWeek about it.
