"<BR/><BR/>Cuomo covets the office of governor - he lost a nasty nomination fight to Carl McCall in 2002. Since Spitzer was virtually nominated by acclaim in 2006, and won in a landslide, Cuomo's got to take the bloom off Spitzer's rose somehow if he hopes to be guv before he's an old man. (I know - that argues that Spitzer may be clean, lol.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885549900454136918.post-89938710591155167412007-07-28T16:41:00.000-07:002007-07-28T16:41:00.000-07:00It's always possible that he was involved, op99.

He is a VERY political politician. I don't know, but his hands may be dirty.

The only explanation I can think of is that, thanks to being a prosecutor for so long, he's used to keeping what he's doing a secret until it's time to go to court, or whatever.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, that doesn't work when you're caught red-handed using your office's power for illegitimate reasons. While I assume Spitzer wasn't actually responsible for this silliness, he's in charge, so his entire office becomes suspect.<BR/><BR/>I'd have fired the two idiots who did that the day I found out about it, because of all the crap I knew they'd have brought on the office. This is one of the many reasons I'm not a politician.Cujo359https://www.blogger.com/profile/10385213658828021737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885549900454136918.post-20605952759187366252007-07-26T22:03:00.000-07:002007-07-26T22:03:00.000-07:00I keep repeating to myself, What the hell is he TH...I keep repeating to myself, What the hell is he THINKING???<BR/><BR/>Surely someone who was such a tenacious hardass as a prosecutor should be able to see how bad this looks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
