NEW YORK - The New York Times is reporting that Gov. Eliot Spitzer has told senior advisers that he had been involved in a prostitution ring.

On its Web site, the newspaper cites an anonymous administration official as the source and says Spitzer was meeting with his top aides.

Spitzer officials wouldn't immediately comment on the story to The Associated Press. An announcement was scheduled for 2:15 p.m. at his Manhattan office.

I don't see what the big deal is. Isn't the Governor supposed to be involved with the General Assembly?

>>He beat too hard on the financial industry.<<

Which proves correct the oft-dispensed advice to people who live in glass houses. Or, in this case, glass brothels.

Doesn’t the constitution guarantee each state a republican form of government? New York is a bannana republic- does that qualify?

Where is the FBI when we need them?
