If it is actually true, then let me just give a big "fuck you" shout-out to Roger Stone for sticking us New Yorkers with that incompetent half-wit David Paterson, and the next Republican governor (Rudy?) we'll probably get as a result. I'm sure Gov. Spitzer would have done a way better job dealing with the budget problems in our state, and would have had that asswipe Pedro Espada ground into a fine pink powder.
As long as Spitzer keeps his head down and keeps on working hard, he can redeem himself. I never personally gave a crap about his offenses, and I think a lot of other people feel the same.
Roger Stone on the other hand, can never stop being Roger Stone, so that's a pretty fucking hideous price to pay.
@Pope John Peeps II: Spitzer's personality is what cost him the governorship - someone with even just a smidgen of humility could have survived. It's that personality that will block any return or redepemption.
And don't forget - he screwed up Albany politics even beyond its usual SNAFU state with Troopergate. If it hadn't been the hookers, it's quite likely he would have been brought down by that.
