Which casting do you think was the best? Worst?
Looks like everyone is trying to make a buck off Spitzer's downfall. Check out Spitzer! The Musical. (h/t Bill W.)



No offense to Conan, but this is being played out. Maybe if we did movies on all of the philaderers ie; Vitter, Craig and maybe even good old Newt and Slick Willie. But lets face facts, there wouldn't be enough airtime for them all.
Hillary and Chuckie seem like a good match. lol
Larry King should've been played by the Cryptkeeper.
Jeff Gannon as the Ace White House reporter
The Bea Arthur/Bill Clinton one was hilarious.
spitzer=fruitbat
The movie should be named,
Warrantless Wiretapping. The Elliot Spitzer Story.
L.A. Confidential @ 7:
How the telecoms took down the terror of wall street.
Most New Yorkers thought Eliot was a change/hope agent as well.
Won by a landslide.
L.A. Confidential @ 9:
I had no idea you could stoop that low, but I guess you can.
Mc Hussein Duff @ 10:
I didn't vote for him I don't live in New York
bigirv @ 6:
Yeah the Spitzer as Fruit Bat comparison made me laugh out loud.
L.A. Confidential @ 11:
No, but you're insinuating that Obama is an "agent" of hope and change and therefore he too might be corrupt and a hypocrite like Spitzer. Isn't that what you were going for there?
Oh, by the by?I have little doubt that this mess does indeed get parlayed into a TV Movie.
Which bank turned him in?
L.A. Confidential @ 7:
Bump! That is the real story.
Kinda weak and stale.
Just can't wait for the unfunny skit of SNL with Obama's preacher in their usual over-the-top, slow-motion, drawn-out, pathetic style.
L.A. Confidential @ 9:
No response from LA.
OK. I guess you could start by explaining why you added "as well" to the first sentence of your post. Who are you including? Certainly not the fruit bat.
The $200 billion bail-out for predator banks and Spitzer charges are intimately linked

This week, Bernanke’s Fed, for the first time in its history, loaned a selected coterie of banks one-fifth of a trillion dollars to guarantee these banks’ mortgage-backed junk bonds. The deluge of public loot was an eye-popping windfall to the very banking predators who have brought two million families to the brink of foreclosure.
Up until Wednesday, there was one single, lonely politician who stood in the way of this creepy little assignation at the bankers’ bordello: Eliot Spitzer.
Who are they kidding? Spitzer’s lynching and the bankers’ enriching are intimately tied.
How? Follow the money.
The press has swallowed Wall Street’s line that millions of US families are about to lose their homes because they bought homes they couldn’t afford or took loans too big for their wallets. Ba-LON-ey. That’s blaming the victim.
Here’s what happened. Since the Bush regime came to power, a new species of loan became the norm, the ‘sub-prime’ mortgage and its variants including loans with teeny “introductory” interest rates. From out of nowhere, a company called ‘Countrywide’ became America’s top mortgage lender, accounting for one in five home loans, a large chunk of these ‘sub-prime.’

The obvious choice for Spitzer is Bill Cowher.
Mc Hussein Duff @ 18:
LA is a provocateur / cointelpro

The current government conducts all kinds of "data sweeps" that involve our use of the Internet, including Web pages we visit, things we say and post, and e-mails we write or receive, along with telephone calls, our spending habits, the flights we take and our bank records. The right to privacy for all practical purposes is as dead as a beached whale.
We're all celebrities being chased around by the government paparazzi.
L.A. Confidential @ 22:
You know, I'm really fucking sick of you. You're either a Hill shill, a plant, or one of these fashionably jaded, 'too-kewl-for-skewl' types. Whatever you are, you're goddamned annoying.
Hillary Clinton - object of ridicule.
Barack Obama - hallowed ground.
Everytime I see Silda's sad face, I get so upset at Spitzer. She's beautiful, smart and has been at his side for over 20 years. WTF!?!?! What the hell is wrong with Sptizer!?. He f'ed up big time!
Jeff Gannon, alleged male hooker, gains entry into the White House 100 times and not a peep about it? Hmmmm, George and Karl
getting home delivery?
One word for Conan PATHETIC! this moron is so boring that my Dog falls into a deep sleep everytime he's on.
That was just hilarious.

Mr . Law and order ,
ah , once there was pres of the US of A , who got a BJ ( he did not inhale ) and he got bounced .
Room314 @ 25:
sad , why cheat , not part of my logic
Watching the media feast on a family's pain is sickening.
None of it has been funny except to gossip and media whores.
Sorry.
