Exactly. Spitzer went to the lobby of the Mayflower hotel to ask his aids if anyone had a CD of Classical music for him to "listen to while he worked" (LOL!) - telling them he would be "up late preparing for my testimony before Congress."
Obviously, he wasn't in his room going over notes that evening.
When Spitzer did testify, he was said to be "unprepared" by a Republican Congressman - and he and Spitzer got into a shouting match that was broadcast on C-SPAN.
I think I will search for that clip.
Like all the details of this con game, Spitzer kept everything under wraps.
Spitzer apparently winked and nodded and assured these colluders the sums paid in for his election would get a "return on investment."
Follow the money---the contributions to Spitzer's elections can all be traced back to RETURN ON INVESTMENT.
Law Enforcement should give all of Spitzer's donors a thorough going over----the tax-exempt Spitzer family trust needs to come under intense scrutiny.
(1) Taxpayers need assurances that Spitzer's official acts are open and above-board and do not conflict with the pecuniary interests of taxpayers.
(2) All documents, phone records and computer data connected to Spitzer should be made available.
(3) A global search of the governor’s financial logs, daily schedules, staff schedules, travel records and phone records, corresponding paperwork and computer data, should be made available for public scrutiny.
(4) A public record should be made of any and all records connected to the governot's office, budget allocations, bonding, state contracts, investing/ managing state revenue, investing pension revenue, were connected to Spitzer's donors.
Voters demand to know the extent to which the Spitzer admin colluded in secret insider deals that benefited his donors to the exclusion of others.
