If you said, "the dankest of fever swamps", please collect your prize.

And the results were predictably hilarious.

Actually, I think Spitzer could come out from behind his 'shame' and do some good here.  

He did what a lot of people do, what David Vitter did, only he, like Siegelman, was on the wrong side of the aisle, and was brought down.

Spitzer could easily talk to US Attorneys, and spill, and it would go a long way, IMO, to wipe the slate clean, even if it probably couldn't rehabilitate him politically.

And then this one:

Spitzer's problem wasn't hypocrisy...it was that he went after WALLSTREET and was going to continue to go after wallstreet as gov so he HAD to be 'taken out' and the easiest way to make sure no one complained (to much) was to take him out by making a federal case out of a private sexual matter (sound familiar) (mumbles monica)...

For all anyone knows this was a total set up and spitzer was to stupid to see it coming.   little head vs BIG HEAD syndrome brings people like spitzer down all the time but if you want to point the finger of hypocrisy at someone in the spitzer mess, point it at ALL the people who clucked their tongues and wagged their fingers and demanded Spitzer resign for doing what most of THEM were also doing.... CHEATING.

Spitzers real crime was going after wallstreet but no one was going to demand he resign as NY's gov for that.
