Furor at top pol's 'hit run' (Kagan's niece the driver!)

State Sen. Eric Schneiderman -- a candidate for attorney general, the highest law-enforcement post in New York -- was involved in a minor car accident outside the New York 1 studios in Chelsea and then fled the scene, the cable news station reported last night.

Oh dear. Powerful politician sideswipes the car of a presstitute. This should be interesting.

This is deliciously funny. $3000 worth of damage is a hard enough hit to know you hit the car. That’s enough of a reason to get out and inspect damage.

[FourPeas]

The political class....nothing should surprise us anymore.

[GreaterSwiss]

Why was a 22 yr old female driving a male politician around.. There’s more to this!....

[AppyPappy]

The World According to Garp just came to mind

[GreaterSwiss]

Perhaps that’s why she couldn’t get out of the car.. His wife might find out they were together

When you hit an unattended parked car, always leave a note. The note should say:

I hit your car and all the bystanders think I’m writing a note for you that includes my name and number. Boy, are they gullible.

Eric Schneiderman was teaching Rachel Kagan to drive a stick-shift even though the car the were in was an automatic. Now that's strange.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

A passing bicyclist who witnessed the incident jotted down Schneiderman's plate number and remained on the scene waiting for the owner of the damaged vehicle, who turned out to be NY1 executive editor Melissa Rabinovich. Karma.

[FourPeas]

It appears he's not married, or at least not living with a wife:

He lives on Manhattan’s Upper West Side with his seventeen-year old daughter Catherine.

I notice the English version of his bio is followed by the Spanish version.

"He said it was only later that Schneiderman discovered his car had been dented, . . . expressed his sincere apology, and offered to pay for all repairs."

Reminds me of a friend of a friend, who was busted for unemployment fraud and couldn't understand why he was still being prosecuted after he said it was only a mistake and would pay back the money.

[sodpoodle]

55 years old - cannot find marital status. Whose daughter???

[Dominic01]

that could totally pass off as a sexual POV since well you know, Kagan is a lesbo and perhaps only uses “automatic”

[kcvl]

Marital Status: Divorced

[MinuteGal]

".....female driving male......there's more to this.....!"

LOL. Did you see Rachel's pic at the link?

At first, with the cascading hair, I thought it was Glinda, the Good Witch of the South....but Rachel is probably from the Upper West Side.

I'll bet he's no prize either.

Schneiderman is the biggest gun grabber there is. He is the one pushing microstamping in NY. I hope the guy and Kagan get what’s coming to them. More likely, though, they’ll skate by in this corrupt state. Imagine this—a hopeful A.G. breaking the law in NY. Hard to believe, I know!

Kagan's niece is Ugly Betty? It must run in the family.
