Sad but true: Any woman who marrys a politician (politicians of course being egomaniacs and narcissists of the highest order) better have a firm grasp on reality and know what she's in for. Hopefully the perks she got in return were worth it.

I think the fact that she stood by him during the address is pretty good evidence that 1) she already knew or 2) it's not the first time something like this has happened.

damn that was an expensive hooker! I thought he was a man of the people! He couldn't just get a medium-priced hooker like the rest of those sex-starved, hypocritical middle american men? did you read how he's a "difficult customer"? I guess nothing but a two thousand dollar hooker will do for his special-needs penis!

these type of spectacle (the scandals) is even worse than the hiring hookers...WHy do people are so willing to eat and ask for more of this public humiliation of the whole family? I'd leave her alone...sad spectacle where most are accomplices

Wealth is relative all right, that's where most get theirs, from their relative.

Boy Snoopy, hopefully your sons got the intelligence from your wife's side of the family. "Do they gets inheritance monies in the divorce?" White power indeed.

wealth is relative as for snoopy's comment: inheritance is granted when someone dies, not when they get divorced. idiot.

I bet you'd get a better cut in the inevitable divorce settlement if you stand by your man at the press conference.

NYT - By ERIC KONIGSBERG Published: November 10, 2006 "In January 2005, when she found herself pondering how best to come to terms with the job of political spouse, Silda Wall Spitzer sought the advice of a woman who was once best known for not fitting so comfortably into that role herself, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton." Can't make this up... Hope she chews him up and "spitz" him out in divorce. What a scuzzball hypocrite. Hey Elliot, RESIGN NOW and take your years of whore-mastery with you.

meh, she's rich too. they'll be OK, the children are not children but in their teens. I would be more concerned about them with a webcam and a stickam account.

I just hope that she's standing with him because SHE wants to, not because she feels it's proper or he's making her.

Snoopy, are you a pedophile, kidnapper, or just unable to distinguish what's relevant?

Quick question. Do all three go to Albany high school and what grades are they in? I have two late teenage sons and if the Spitzers get divorced are they or will they be in line for a huge inheritance?
