The 2012 Reporter's Roundtable debut begins with analysis of Governor Cuomo's second State of the State Address. The reporters discuss Gov. Cuomo's effort to 'effuse good feelings' by avoiding controversial issues like hydrofracking and redistricting and by instead focusing on building and growth. Feedback from lawmakers reflects questions as well as hope regarding Gov. Cuomo's goals for New York. Issues discussed include the proposal for $4 billion for building the largest convention center in the nation at the site of New York City's Aqueduct Racetrack, $1 billion to revitalize the city of Buffalo, the education reform panel, and other key items.
