Spitzer Cheated On His Call-Girl

Former Governor Elliot Spitzer was a regular customer of more than the Emperors [sic] Club VIP for his call girls; he "patronized Wicked Models, the Manhattan-based operation taken down Tuesday," according to the New York Post. (H/T: hotair.com)

The head of Wicked Models is Kristen "Billie" Davis, who made two million dollars last year pimping out prostitutes for $1,000 an hour. That's cheap compared to the $5,500 per hour that clients paid for some of the Emperors Club women.

The Post reports that Davis "'personally interfaced with Spitzer a number of times" since 2003 before she became a madam,'" according to a source close to Davis. (Interface? Is that the verb they're teaching in Health?)

Davis' client list allegedly includes 10,000 names.

Given that Davis has now been indicted for money laundering and promoting prostitution -- and faces the prospect of 15 years in jail -- we can expect to hear more about those 10,000 names. In an election year, no less. Men, the attorney-client, doctor-patient, pastor-penitent privileges do not apply; there is no hooker-John privilege.

We Like Mike For NY Governor (Not US President)

With N.Y. Gov. Eliot Spitzer's resignation earlier today, speculation now turns to which non-Democrat would be best positioned to run for the office in the '10 election. Newsday reports that, by an "overwhelming 73 percent to 22 percent margin", New York City voters want Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Republican turned Independent, to run. Let's hope he does.

If there is not a strong enough Republican to be elected, then Bloomberg would be a good second choice. Bloomberg also needs to get his mind off of running for President this year as an Independent. We don't need him to play a spoiler role a la Ross Perot in '92.

Spitzer's Subliminal Advertising

The night before Valentine's Day, many husbands are busy shopping for chocolates or making dinner reservations for a romantic evening. New York Governor Elliot Spitzer enjoyed his rendezvous a night early, but not with his wife.

Spitzer, a Democrat, apparently visited a prostitute at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, D.C. Spitzer has been caught on a federal wiretap of a prostitution ring known as the Empeorors [sic] Club VIP, where the most expensive women sold their bodies for $5,500 an hour.

Before becoming governor, Spitzer was Attorney General of New York. He made his reputation as a real law and order guy -- and even investigated a few prostitution rings.

Spitzer exploited his reformer-image in his commercials when he ran for governor. But that's not all he exploited. At least one of his commercials was, what -- Freudian? Prophetic? Pathetic?

One ad starts out stating that once and a while, someone comes along who "takes on Goliath, slays the proverbial lion." Turns out that Spitzer has more in common with David than slaying Goliath; David had a famous run-in with a prostitute named Bathsheba.

Then there's the reference to slaying the dragon, an allusion to St. George. We now know that Spitzer is no saint. But according to the New York Times, some prostitutes thought his name was George.

Spitzer's ads saved the best for last. His tag line: "Bring Some Passion Back to Albany."
