OLD FORGE, Pennsylvania (CNN) - Sen. Hillary Clinton said she had no comment on New York Governor Eliot Spitzer's possible involvement in a prostitution ring.
"I obviously am sending my best wishes and thoughts to the governor and to his family," she told reporters after visiting with reporters in a local pizza parlor.
When asked whether Gov. Spitzer could survive politically she said "let's wait and see what comes out of the next few days. Right now I don't have any comment. I think it's appropriate to wish his family well and see how things develop."

He better resign! This is a disgrace, just like Clinton disgraced this nation.
uhm was he with a prostitute or was he in "business" with the ring? those are two very different things.
I don't care what anybody does in bed. if we would have to "clean office" the only one left would be the women in politics. obama used to do drugs, correct?
Apparently the investigators of the NY governor must have Bills name in the list of contributors.Please Cnnn investigate and come up with some substancial evidence to shut up th clintons for goood.They never seem to concede defeat.The cheek of offering a vice presedential offer to OBAMA 08.
I bet your thoughts are ... you would like to know if Bill is on THAT list TOO .
Who is calling at 3:00 AM?
Eliot for Bill.
She better ask Bill if he was involved. You know slick willy!
If he was a Repub, she would be howling for his immediate resignation. But since he is a Dem, he gets a nice note of support!
That's the new world of politics, I guess.
"My advice to Mrs. Spitzer would be to look at the bright side ! She is now qualified to run for the office of Governor of NY, and should expect to win !!"
Clinton should speak out against this type of behavior, and certainly not "SEND HER BEST" to the Govenor Spitzer, how about his WIFE and 3 daughters. This is going to be her answering that phone call 3:00 AM, she is so amoral. I wouldn't vote for her now.
Does all this bring back any memories of the Vince Foster days....with Hillary?
Is this woman stupid?! You should reject and denounce this?! What is wrong with Hillary, you are setting us back a 100 years!
There will be no republicans involved in this scandal. (Apparently no underage males were available as prostitutes.)
Who was actually being pimped out for this?
I agree. My thoughts are with his family.
Now it's time to resign!
This man prosecuted johns and prostitution.. Go figure...
. . .We all knew who answered Spitzers phone at 3 am.
Did Spitzer break any law? If he did (break the law), is he still allowed to vote (not mention a superdelegete for DEM) like the rest of law abiding citizens?
Why are Hillary's thoughts with Spitzer and not on the victims – those exploited women, which she has pledged to defend??
I guess, those women don't have the political influence he has... so they don't count.
Why ask to Clinton about that? the intention is likely make her to give an answer to compromise her. I think whoever made this question to Hillary was intending to cacth. I think she gave a well appropriate answer to a silly question.
Maybe if things work out between Mr. and Mrs. Spitzer, Hilary might claim she was part of it? Like she has claimed she had to do with many of the foregin policy issues during Bill Clintons Administration.
For those Clinton supporters wondering why so many people hate the Clintons, well it's their own behavior caused the hatred, and the Clintons deserve it.
Sooner or later, Clinton's bad Karma will get back to her.
Hmmm.....French people enjoys sex very often..
AmerIcan politicians enjoys sex while in office.....
What is going on here..I think we are morally corrupt like in 1800's. washinton and elsewhere...
So what? It wouldn't even be 8th page news in France!
WOW!!!!! I am so dissappointed in this nations voters and news media. What have you all turned in to -- a bunch of hate generating ,self rightous, trial by opinion only -citizenship. At 51 I have have never been so un- proud of we the people.
Gee one of her Superdelegates down the drain. I bet that sticks in her craw..... Maybe they can give Eliot a job as White House Entertainment director, if she gets elected. Bill would love that....
