Senator Joseph Griffo calls Sheldon Silver's power sharing proposal a cockamamie idea.

Griffo say five people taking turns negotiating on behalf of their conferences is going to severely undermine the effectiveness of the budget process.

The senator says it's unconscionable that Silver is going to throw the entire chamber into disarray because he's unwilling to cede control to his second in command.

Griffo says for the sake of New Yorkers and the efficiency of the budget process, it's time for Silver to do the right thing and step down as speaker.
