What is almost as scary as having someone like Eliot Spitzer holding power is having so many pundits talking as if this is just a "personal" flaw in Governor Spitzer that should not disqualify him for public office.

Spitzer himself spoke of his "personal" failing as if it had nothing to do with his being governor of New York.

Excellent observation. Spitzer has been trying to separate his actions with the prostitute ring from his thuggish behavior as governor and prosecutor, when the latter quite probably made the former entirely predictable. Or at minimum, heavily influenced it.

He’ll keep trying but he’s going to lose.
