Absolutely stunning and shocking turn of events. And he still faces federal charges for violating the Mann Act and Money Laundering. WOW. I wish Spitzer and his family (especially his wife -- look at her, she is absolutely DEVASTATED) WELL. And I wish the new Governor God's speed in his new role. <link>

What a waste, and what a stupid mistake. Poor Mr. Spitzer and family...But how hypocritical of him, too!

Should sex scandals stop his career? I don't know, but it's a moot point now.

The biggest lost is to the people. The biggest gains are for CEOs on Wall Street and the Republican establishment. If Bruno is the de facto lieutenant governor, that changes the balance in Albany too.

Question: Would this have happened if New York had a Republican governor? I've noticed that the Bush Administration's Dept of Justice has a pretty strong track record of trying to prosecute largely Democratic figures across the country...

What is Attorney General Mukasey's role going to be in all of this? And what about his ties to Giuliani's people, who hate Spitzer? And is there any truth to the rumor that Giuliani might run for governor of NY?

Curious.

If you knew anything about Spitzer, you wouldn't be so quick to support him. Poor Mr Spitzer? There has never been a more egocentric, self serving, arrogant bastard to ever run for office. His wife should castrate him and then throw the ass hole into the street, naked and broke.
