For more than a week, Americans have been fascinated by the revelation
that former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer was a client of a high-end
escort service called "The Emperors Club."
"The last time I saw him, he had asked me to write about prostitution
and his work on the field," said The New York Times' Nicholas Kristof.
"It's just such an astonishing act of bravado and chutzpah considering
what we know of him now."
