the governor controls the aircraft, so the next time, you know, bruno says, "i need to go to yonkers.o to buffalo, you say, "no." instead of the easy fix, spitzer had gone into attack mode, which you can do if your own record is spotless. problem was, the so-called "mr. clean" had a lot of dirty laundry. nobody is appointed to a single thing, nor will they be able to that i personally--misstep, but i'm taking responsibility. eliot spitzer has never publicly admitted when he started soliciting sex workers, nor has he said what particular event might have triggered that choice. some sources put it before his inauguration, which might put his first year in office in a new context. he was not in control, so i get a phone call from silda. she says, "let's go out for lunch," and she says, "who is this guy? he looks like eliot, but i don't know who this guy is." and, of course, i knew what she was talking about, and i said, "it's the intoxication of the moment. he's full of all of this pride at getting this amazing electoral result. the man we know and love will be back soon." was he? no. ♪
