Disgraced former Gov. Eliot Spitzer has been privately talking with friends about a possible comeback, and is considering a run for statewide office next year, several sources told The Post.

Less than 18 months after he left Albany in a prostitution scandal, Spitzer has held informal discussions in recent weeks about the possibility of making a bid for state comptroller or the US Senate seat currently held by Kirsten Gillibrand, sources said.

Why not try for Teddy’s seat? He’s the most qualified to fill that old reprobate’s shoes.

When you have a sewer for a national political arena and a bunch of #%^&#&s as politicians - WHY NOT?

Maybe he and Sandford can form a Democrat Republican Tag Team and run for President and Vice President. They can hire Al Franken as their official Senatorial Spokesman.

It takes an awful lot of money, corruption, sleeze, and cheating to train a good democrat.

They’re just trying to justify their expenditure.

A guy who writes checks to hookers needs to be elected State Controller—and the keeper of the state’s money?

Only in NY could this happen and it is very funny.

Perhaps those same voters would like O J Simpson for the next head of their state women’s shelters, too.

You Can’t Keep A Bad Man Down

In Elliot’s case, saltpeter and an occasional nightstick to the crotch might help.

As a Democrat, if e was caught in a truck stop with The Gay American or a sheep,Client #9 would be a cinch, but had the wrong kind of scandal. Sorry pal a come back is one thing Daddy’s money can’t buy you.

But here’s two quick questions: Why aren’t you in the can? Why weren’t you forced to roll on your buddies? Because you’re a Democrat I guess.

Clearly, when Democrats refuse to prosecute other Democrats, they take that as vindication that opens them up for "comebacks."

Ross Perot had it right, firing adulterers: “If your spouse can’t trust you, I cannot trust you”
