If Eliot Spitzer Is Our Savior, We Are Screwed

But it appears to me that he's the only figure out there who gets what is wrong with the system (30:54):



No one else describe the problems so simply and completely, and it's clear that there is no one else in the public policy sphere gets is willing or able to see this.

Unfortunately, he'll always be the guy who paid a hooker, so he's too toxic to ever hold public office ever again.

I would vote for him for Senate in a NY minute. At least he only screws prostitutes, not his constiuency!

Hi Matthew,

That's because, unlike the Monica L. affair, he actually paid for services rendered.

Ho!

He could run. However, with a hooker in his past, he'd have to run as a Republican.

Good point. Definitely worth a shot.

Of course, in a better system we could be our own saviors.
