No mention of the fact that Spitzer is a Democrat.

Post: >>Fox News reported that he has been indicted and will resign.

http://www.nypost.com/seven/03102008/news/regionalnews/spitzer_linked_to_prostitution_ring__rep_101299.htm

WRKO in Boston just went to his presser and he said he would take no questions—but word has it he will take some “time off”...no idea if he’s resigning or not. “Developing”

My daughter just called while traveling to Connecticut from western New York and said he is resigning...and that our new governor is black and totally blind.

SOMEHOW, I think this is the payback from Hillary for the immigation/driver's license fiasco.

In fact, I'd bet on it...

It will be interesting to see where this leads. Most prostitution rings are conected with organized crime. Along with that Hillary is strongly connected with this guy.

I knew times would get worst as Spitzer arrived. I just didn’t except that Spitzer would do such stupid things, such as his crazy plan to get illegal aliens driver licenses.

Clearly, I bet some people are missing Pataki a bit, he looks competent compared to Spitzer.

“Spitzer, 48, built his political legacy on rooting out corruption”

I’m sure he’ll be able to root out some corruption in whatever prison he ends up in.

The people of NY got the leader they deserved.

He is a democrat, and no need to resign.. apparently there were four people mentioned.. wonder if the impeached ex president was involved? but I doubt if he would pay the fare.. he would expect to be paid for his “bent” services, that no doubt required a performance enchanging drug..

CBS 2 NYC: Sources: Spitzer Not Expected To Continue Term Governor Could Resign, Swear In Lt. Gov. David Paterson Tonight NEW YORK (CBS) ― Gov. Eliot Spitzer has been linked to a prostitution ring, the New York Times is reporting on its Web site. He is not expected to continue his term and could swear in Lt. Gov. David Paterson tonight, multiple sources in the state Legislature tell CBS 2. The news sets off one of the largest scandals in modern New York state political history. During a news conference Monday afternoon, Spitzer apologized to his family and public, but did not go as far as to explain why. "I must now dedicate some time to regain the trust of my family," he said in a brief statement alongside his wife, Silda Wall Spitzer. Spitzer may resign and swear in Paterson at 7 p.m. tonight, reliable sources tell CBS 2's Political Reporter Marcia Kramer. http://wcbstv.com/breakingnewsalerts/spitzer.prostitution.ring.2.673848.html

He is one of Hillary's superdelegates. Someone should ask her about the men in her life that like prostitutes.

There will be more VSIPs (Very Self-Important People) on that list.

Any guesses?

Opportunity for Rudy to run for Gov?

I know masses on FR hate Rudy, but with his economic policies, he would do wonders as NY Gov....polar opposite to Spitzer.
