ALBANY - Gov. Eliot Spitzer has been caught on a federal wiretap arranging to meet with a high-priced prostitute at a Washington hotel last month, according to a person briefed on the federal investigation.

An affidavit in the federal investigation into a prostitution ring said that a wiretap recording captured a man identified as Client 9 on a telephone call confirming plans to have a woman travel from New York to Washington, where he had reserved a hotel room. The person briefed on the case identified Mr. Spitzer as Client 9.

Mr. Spitzer today made a brief public appearance during which he apologized for his behavior, and described it as a “private matter.”

“I have acted in a way that violates my obligation to my family and violates my or any sense of right or wrong,” said Mr. Spitzer, who appeared with his wife Silda at his Manhattan office. “I apologize first and most importantly to my family. I apologize to the public to whom I promised better.”

“Not Safe”.....

....I can’t help but think there’s some weirdness going on here. For $5,500 an hour I’m thinking you’re getting more than your ordinary BJ.

Yes, he’s been great since 9/11.

Anyway, whose bright idea was it to get Roger Stone on the air to comment about a sex scandal???

For those who may not remember, he and his wife had an ad — with a photo — in a swingers’ magazine a few years back.

Has anyone asked Dick Morris to comment on the quality of this particular prostitution ring? “It’s feet and ankles above the others”

Actually, it was probably just before VD, the hooker called her pimp at 12:02 am on VD.

Thanks. Close enough, eh? Yeesh.

The VD means “Valentine’s Day”, btw, not to be confused with “venereal disease”, lol.

Except in Eliot's case...

That’s ok, you can nominate me for “Captain Obvious”. My only question is, if it’s so freekin’ obvious, why do voters keep voting for these asshats?

It’s not out of the question that some republicans could also be involved. I hope not, but the ring ran in Wash DC.

Is it too much to hope he took Corzine with him on some of these outings?

Just another reason why Upstate needs its own state...

From the indictment:“He (client number 9 - Spitzer) would ask you to do things that, like, you might not think were safe”

So I guess swinging from the chandeliers while in flagrante delicto was the governor's fave?

ROFLMAO--it just keeps getting better.

Mr. Spitzer No. 9 was at the Mayflower Hotel!

Such a long history of prostitution at the old Mayflower.
