Last week, four people were slapped with federal prostitution charges for running "Emperor’s Club V.I.P.” and today New York Governor Eliot Spitzer admitted he’s been “involved” in a prostitution ring.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmn.
Exactly how did Spitzer’s name wind up on federal court papers?
Did a former prosecutor and attorney general really stumble into the dragnet -- or did the feds get a tip-off?
If the feds had help, chances are that Spitzer, as usual, got on somebody’s nerves. But whose?
THE SUSPECTS:
Was it one of the OTHER JOHNS who had to be “Client 10” was angry because Spitzer jumped the line and got to be “Client 9”?
One of THE COMPETITION might have dimed him. When Spitzer was attorney general, he busted a few prostitution rings, himself -- perhaps a madam with her nose bent out of joint ratted him out as revenge for restraint of trade.
Did a MEMBER OF HIS STAFF blow the whistle? Maybe a hard-working administration employee just wanted his boss to step down for once.
Or was it one of THE HOOKERS who got tired about how Albany doesn’t love him and how he's outgrown Albany and how Albany is so…cold
If only there were a silver lining.
Hey, WAIT!
Looking on the bright side, there are NO ALLEGATIONS WHATSOEVER that Spitzer
was part of the international pedophilia ring
that was also busted today.
No doubt Spitzer's press office is thanking heavens for small favors.
And the ladies still love him...
...though perhaps not the one he's married to at present.
What if it turns out that the Lt. Gov. is only faking blindness?
ReplyDeleteSpitzer would have allowed him access to the phone logs, figuring he posed no threat.
In fact, he was carefully preparing a trap.
Has anyone considered that?
