Get ready for the Steamroller online: The Observer reports that Eliot Spitzer will start writing a column for Slate.com. Called, "The Best Policy," Slate editor-in-chief Jacob Weisberg said, "He's going to be doing a regular thing. It'll be heavily about the financial crisis and fixing financial markets and the economy generally" (topics he covered in his Washington Post editorial last month). Weisberg added, "He was very receptive to the idea. I don't portray this as something we had to coax him into. He's got a lot to say and he was very receptive to writing on the subject." Yes, Spitzer does have a lot to say: You can read his first column about why the U.S. should "stop using bailouts to rebuild gigantic financial institutions."




Eliot,
Nobody wants to hear from you, whoremonger.
Enough with the photo, it got tired the second time I saw it.
He should write erotic fiction like Bill O'Reilly.
I think he's paid his debt at this point. If he has something to say let him. He might even have some beneficial ideas. He's not a murderer or a pedophile. A bit of a hypocrite who stepped on a lot of toes. His personal life is between him and his family.
The article makes decent points.
He should have remained AG.
We took down a guy for paying for a little young nookie (on his own nickel) while the suits ran off with the store. Yay for us.
it's too bad this idiot couldn't just buy his wife some wigs. we voted him in for a reason.
He's a few big op ed pieces in the NY Times away from staging his comeback. He should be the next SEC chief and Obama should overlook the hanky panky.Remember, in the right light, all the whoremongering appears "Kennedyesque".
Or Clintonesque, or Eisenhoweresque, or Jeffersonesque, ad nauseum.
btw, 'whoremonger' should refer to the pimp, not the john.
