Disillusionment

This is so sad.  If you can't trust Eliot Spitzer to be an honest politician, I don't think you can really trust anyone anymore.  He did so much for Wall Street, and for New York.

I don't really get why prostitution is illegal, and I don't think public figures should lose their careers over their consensual sexual behavior.  However, in this particular case, like in the recent Larry Craig scandal, the unforgiveable hypocrisy is the problem, not the action itself.

I've always thought of Spitzer as the king of clean.  I guess it is always the ones who protest the most who have the most to hide.  Sigh.
