Career Terminated

Governor Eliot Spitzer (D-NY), who was lauded by the press as a Robin Hood sort of guy for his actions as New York’s Attorney General, is in a huge dang load of trouble.
I always thought he seemed pretty slimy. His pursuits as AG seemed to me to be geared expressly to get him into the Governor’s office, and as a springboard to national office.
Turns out he was a different sort of Robin Hood — taking from the rich and giving to the whores.
(Via Hot Air… again. They have all the good stuff.)
Update: Let’s play Guess The Party!
The current version (at 3:45pm) of the New York Times’ online story doesn’t mention Spitzer’s party affiliation until the 15th paragraph. If he’d been a Republican, they’d have mentioned the GOP in the headline, in the lede, and in every subsequent paragraph.
