Spitzer Sex Scandal

Normally I avoid talking about the major news stories because I really don't have much to add.
But I do have to make a few points about Eliot Spitzer getting caught as a client of a high-priced prostitution ring.

No high-profile man is faithful to his wife. And it's partly their fault for refusing to leave their cheating husbands. And the icon for this new breed of spineless woman could be our next President.

I can't wait until someone comes out with a picture of this whore, Kristen.
Hey Playboy she's “an American, petite, very pretty brunette, 5 feet 5 inches, and 105 pounds.” Does that sound like something you might be interested in?

If you are going to cheat on your wife with a high-priced hooker and ruin your career in the process, Room 871 of the Mayflower Hotel seems like a nice place to do it.

If you haven't read anything about this story and watch to catch up, especially on the lascivious details, this New York Times article is the best place to do so, in part because it includes the following passage:

"When she called Ms. Lewis, they discussed the client’s reputation as a “difficult” man who sometimes asked the prostitutes “to do things you might not think were safe,” Ms. Lewis said. But Kristen, according to court papers, was prepared: “I have a way of dealing with that,” she is quoted as having told Ms. Lewis. “I’d be like, Listen, dude, you really want the sex? ...You know what I mean.” The fact was that Kristen liked him, though, and told Ms. Lewis that he wasn’t all that difficult."

Note: The New York Times website allows you to doubleclick on a word, and get the word's definition. Looking up "sang-froid" couldn't possibly be any easier.

If like me, you prefer to read source material, here is the entire criminal complaint.

Spitzer wanted to leave the hotel key for "Kristen" in an envelope with The Concierge. But evidently they didn't trust him because they instructed Spitzer to leave the door slightly ajar so Kristen could go right to the room.
