With today's political climate, I would venture they're attacking this guy because he's white.

Good riddance to bad rubbish!

Young Interns yes
Professionals no

Got it now Eliot??

This man had everything, respect, power, position. He chose to throw it away into the arms of a prostitute. Loyalty and faithfulness to ones spouse is the measure of a man. I am proud to be a man who loves my spouse and has loved him for 15 years and showed him the respect of fidelity. But for the grace of god - the rest of us could have chosen the road that Spitzer did. It's just sad.

Solicitation of sex for money is illegal. Who paid for it, was it a federal crime?Those are all questions in Spitzer's case.

Bill Clinton fooled around on his wife, not illegal.It was Bill's testimony that got him impeached, not the act itself.

What is so wrong about how CNN is covering Hillary Clinton or any other political candidate? They tell what the facts are as they happen. If a lot of those facts happen to be negative then that is because the candidate has said or did something to bring those facts to light. The whining about her being picked on more than another candidate because she is a woman is pompous and not at all reflective of the reporting of the news networks.

Maya- you're delusional if you think of Hillary as no risk or unknown. she is constantly having things pop up about her current and past dealings. that includes personal life.

The details of the telephone calls Spitzer made as "Client 9″ are beginning to appear in the news. It's so shameful to think what his wife and three young daughters must be going through right now. Spitzer deserves to be embarrased right now.

Let's hope he doesn't make his poor wife stand by his side again, that poor woman looked like she was in shock….I think the sight of her face inspired a lot of outrage at his actions.

Great!!!! Finally some good news from NY.

go away in disgrace you hypocrite. Dem's should expect to be under fire from GOP from this scandal. it's what we did when we heard of their scandals. turnabout is fair play. clean it up or get out of office.

Here's an idea. If we're going to threaten impeachment for salacious activity which shows a lack of integrity, how about we do the same for a war built on lies, for showing preference to Haliburton, for emails which "disappeared" …the list goes on.

Amazing how you all want to tie this to a presidential candidate. What's wrong with you people?

He betrayed the one he supposedly loved, which in my book says he has or will betray the people he serves as well. Now if you can point out the same for Hillary or Obama, or any other politician, then let them have it. Otherwise this story starts and ends with Elliott.

Good Bye and good luck Mr. Spitzer. New York and America will be better off without you.

Well cnn finds a way to try to put some dirt on president Clinton

No comment on the great divider Obama

Black vote count 90%-Obama using his black speech bamboozie oke doke, you know the speech he never uses in white states

White vote count 27%-Obama, whites are getting tired of these racial slurrs i guess their feeling hoodwink, Obama is feeding on racial tension to win at any cost that's why he'll loose.

HILLARY-EDWARDS-08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The timing of this makes me wonder….

This comes out right about the time Hillary should be shoring up the Democratic nomination (but obviously Obama threw a wrench in that plan).

Nevertheless, a Democratic New York politician, Superdelegate for Hillary caught up in a sex scandal. Did the GOP (thinking Hillary would be the nominee by now) plan this as a reminder of the last time the Clintons were in the White House?

Karl Rove is a dirty, dirty man (see the recent 60 Minutes story on him). I wouldn't be surprised if this is a political prosecution — but still, prostitution is not cool, and Spitzer deserves to go down.

Hillary, it's 11:30 am, the phone is ringing…it's former Gov. Spitzer letting you know he's no longer a Super Delegate!

dont worry mr spizter marion barry is doing fine so will you, just play the antisemitic card like the mayor from detroit is playing the race card and people will reelect you in the dem party no matter what you do.

Wow, some articles close so fast, why is that? Geraldine Ferraros' comments were true, why is that racist? Obama would not be where he is if he were white. Oprah would not have campaigned for him if he were white. Blacks would have stuck with Hillary if he were not black. Everybody knows this is true. So get over it. If you don't like the non-message of Obama you are a racist? Then I guess I am a racist.

$80,000.00 over 6 years. Illegal money tranfers,etc. More to come.
Highest law enforcemnt officer in NY. Hardley the same level as a lowley senator or congressman who just had sex.
Oh well, the dems will try to spin it down. It was the bank that noticed what was happening and notified the IRS.
Just another multimillionaire limosine liberal.
One of Hillarys pledged Super delegates. Wonder if Bill has a membership in that club too? lol
Sad my foot. It's hilarious. "A" mistake. How long does "A" mistake last? I doubt if "we all" make that kind of mistakes. Heck we don't have the money. She should take all his money and kick the jerk out. That is shameful to put her out on press conferences to cover his butt.
Must have made a deal so he doesn't go to jail.
No man is indispensible. It isn't the end of the world.

So because a HIllary Supporter did something wrong, unrelated to her or her campaign is justification to make these posts about Hillary?

How childish.

What you do in the dark will eventually come to light. It seems like he used his experience in prosecuting prostitution rings to try and dupe the system. ahh politics

Rupe you are right. Also it is very pathetic, that the clintons and specially Hillary who ssays she has fought for women's rights, blah blah blah, has not condem this. !!!! using women in prostitituion is part of that whole area we call abuse of human rights, women's rights where is she standing now???? well, where else with Bill and another cheater… this is why she can not elected where are her stands???
how is thsi standing for women when she says n othing. The man was a client of a big prostitituion ring!!! helloo, women trafficking, abuse of women,. Billary. bBillary, I dont this example being set for my daugther, exploitation of women is exploitation of women even if he is paying $4,000……………………… i will quote one blogger here: Rupe :
" March 12th, 2008 10:29 am ET
RUPE
And again, libs, please enlightenment me.. why do we want these type of people running the government? Typical liberal psychology of entitlement, do as I say not as I do…"
they do it with everything, race, money, education, etc.. you name it………..

RE: "David Vitter didn't prosecute others who are guilty of what they themselves are guilty of. The hypocrisy is even worse than the offense."

No, David Vitter just paraded around yelling "family values" and protrayed himself as something he wasn't.

And it was Vitter's wife who spoke so harshly of Hillary Clinton. When asked years ago if she would be as forging as Hillary if her husband cheated, she said: “I’m a lot more like Lorena Bobbitt than Hillary. If he does something like that, I’m walking away with one thing, and it’s not alimony, trust me.” But there she was, standing by her man and pleading for privacy for her family.

If this is not hypocritical, I don't know what is!

Thanks Elliot for bring to light

the sort of political behavior that

Hillary has a GREAT DEAL of

EXPERIENCE with!

I'd like to hear her discuss this EXPERIENCE she has.

EXCELLENT timing!

almost as if DELIBERATE!

He's now a subdelegate.

Spitzer is not the only that has a sinking ship. The Clinton's are not far behind.

Don't cough up too much water.

It's sad to see this happening to Spitzer. I know he deserves some punishment, but it's still sad.

This man is reminding me of OBAMA when he was campaigning for the governorship. With all the talk of let us change the way they do business in curent government, let us do what is right… then now what happens?… Is this but a premonition of what will happen if we will base our vote on promises of change? Will it be interesting to know who client #5 is , for a change?

This is sure not good for Ms. Hillary…lol!!!

It's seems like the Hillary supporters are resisting to take another look at their candidate. Hillary is so clearly running a divisive and smear campaign with her kitchen sink strategy. It boggles my mind why this doesn't turn off a lot of voters. Not to insult her supporters but could it be true that they are just not the type that even know about such things?

Eye Opener - Las Vegas wrote: "Another reason why people should vote for a WOMAN President!"

Be careful with that thought… what if the woman president gets caught in a sexual misconduct !!! just a thought.

What's Hilary Clinton saying? She needs to support this family in time of great need. Is she only interested in Spitzer's vote?

It's such a shame…he was a great attorney general and governer. Although his personal issues did not affect his ability as a government official, if he in fact is Client 9, his illegal actions unfortunely make it necessary for him to resign. A 12 year history with prostitutes though…yeah, he needs help.

Oh no, Clinton loses a super delegate!

To Abi,
What do you do change the channel or walk away from the TV when
CNN talks about Obama. There has been more negative news about
him than about the Clintons. CNN tip toes around the Clintons or Hillary might start crying. Where were you when Hillary and her campaign attack Obama, almost daily. Stop being naive, gullable,
biased and get the whole truth when you whine.

It's time to move forward with our front runner! Obama '08!

Hillary please drop out now, and stop all your despicable propaganda!

The bigger they are the harder they fall. What a shame, sex has ruined many a good man. That is why we need a woman as President. Women do not think of sex every two minutes as men do. This is a proven fact, at least with normal males. I guess God gave men the drive to procreate, women the drive to think of other things.

Good thing this lynch mob mentality didn't exist 60 years ago or we wouldn't of had a government, not that we have much of one now.

How did this become about Hillary Clinton?? Good Grief. Obama supporters are crazy!!! Obama is supported by a man who killed a woman (Ted Kennedy) and a man who said only idiots are fighting in Iraq (John Kerry)

Lou Dobbs has seen Obamas true colors, now give Hillary a break.
CNN has been unfair to the wrong person.

GOOD! One less Hillary superdelegate!

Don't the door hit you…

It's the right thing to do. Whether you think prostitution should be legal or you think this guy is being judged too harshly for his personal life, doesn't matter. What matters is that the guy who claims to be fighting crime and keeping people safe is also committing crime and putting people at risk, including his family. The hypocrisy is too palpable to ignore. I liken it to the chief of police getting caught drunk driving or stealing. He or she would NOT still have a job if they did this.

And yes, I'm a Christian who loves this man and forgives him, but is still capable of making him accountable.

Everything always seems to turn to the clintons. You all are always looking for anything to put down Bill & Hillary Clinton. Back off and shut up!!!!

This whole thing is very sad! Good luck to him, his family and all who are negatively affected. We all make mistakes and we are all hypocrite at some level in our lives.

I mean WOMAN. Shows how irritated I am about this!

And again, libs, please enlightenment me.. why do we want these type of people running the government? Typical liberal psychology of entitlement, do as I say not as I do…

David Vitter didn't prosecute others who are guilty of what they themselves are guilty of.

The hypocrisy is even worse than the offense.

Goes around comes around! No truer statement. He should not be allowed to walk away from this injustice . He needs to face the music. Toomany times these lowlife politians get to skate, while us common folk go to jail. SO DOES HE………I do not care how much money this scumbag has. His wife needs to get herself check out be a doctor and take him to the cleaners. This clown is the most arrogant selfish pif I have ever seen………………The whole client list needs to be made public. This is an outrage that these scumbags get a walk..RELEASE THE WHOLE CLIENT LIST…….

It makes me sick the way that people tie this to Hillary!!

Actually, she is a WOMEN and therefore unlikely to be in any of this sort of scandal! She is NOT A RISK or AN UNKNOWN- nothing unexpected is going to pop up about her in the general. THIS IS A GOOD THING.

Stop the Hillary bashing on this- disgusting.

Another reason why people should vote for a WOMAN President!

Gov. Eliot Spitzer, don't quite many great leader in spite of their personal issue fought to stay in office to do good. Be humble and admit what you did pay a fine attend counseling and be an example that people make mistake.

You should not run. If you start running you will likely kill yourself in shame hold your head up and pray about it and move on.

Your family and the state of New Your is in my Prayers

Live on CNN right now.
There's this reporter Steve Kornacki saying Spitzer was trying to use the Clinton strategy, This is rediculouse, I dont see what wrong the Clintons have done to CNN to deserve all this negative things all the time.
At any oppurtunity they have to say negative things, they jump on it.

Bill Clinton's terms brought Peace and Prosperity to the World and CNN would never give it to him or he's family. Mrs Clinton has done so much good and CNN will never say it and they will not cover any negative things about Senator Obama

More American should be outraged with all this negative things that the media keeps putting out there about the Clinton's
Oh by the way, they also raised a wonderfull girl to a great and inteligent lady.

People please go to HillaryClinton.com

Good.

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

I know there is a LT. Governor, but I sure wish he could hand this position over to Hillary Clinton. Send her back to NY so she can stop dividing this entire country.

We would have to just about start over if we rid of all the hypocrites in our government.

David Vitter (R-LA) should also resign. He has been linked to a Washington D.C. escort service. Give him 48 hours to do so or impeach him from Congress.

Good!!! this is enough……………….. hopefully CNN will show who he supported in this presidential race.

and hopefully (but dont count on this) Billary will denounce such practices, althought if Bill set the course, how can she?

DUH!!!
