    Well, duh Spitzer's going to win. His minions are already making job offers to potential staffers. He still did a lousy job on the Wall Street cases.

    I LOVE the idea of a stealth wedding...it's better than all the high-maintenance crap you usually see. It's nice to see that some people want to be creative about their ceremony!

  • I love this quote from the Pirro article...



    "We prosecuted and convicted about 100 made members and associates of organized crime for murder, loan-sharking, assault, organized criminal enterprises and gambling,” she said, "including my husband."



    OK, I added the last part.



    PS: That's Governor Shameless Self Promoter to you, bub.

    Spitzer let his Wall Street targets go with settlements amounting to about two weeks of their profits. Has he ever seen the inside of a courtroom? Yeah, he really fought for the little guy.
