You're an idiot MarathonMind. He abused his power as Attorney General in order to extort Wall Street firms. His favorite method was to threaten criminal prosecution against firms in order to prevent them from defending themselves in civil courts where those cases belonged. Managers knew that criminal prosecutions, especially by one as corrupt as Spitzer, would have bankrupted them. Every firm involved was allowed to "make restitution" without admission of wrongdoing. It was white collar extortion pure an simple.
When John Whitehead, former head of Goldman Sachs and a man with impeccable credentials, wrote a pience in the Wall Street Journal revealing Spitzers defamatory attacks against Hank Greeberg, Spitzer phoned Whitehead and with a vulgar tirade threatened to destroy him too.
Eliot Spitzer is a common crook and a thug who deserves to be prosecuted with the same malicious zeal that he prosecuted others. May he rot in hell.
I saw him address a local business group here. Charming as hell-- comes across as entirely rational and much more realistic than, say, Obama.
Many of the Marsh people in the audience were openly hostile at the beginning of the talk but opened up by the end.
As for being an aggressive bully, that is what DA's do. Make no mistake-- DA's get paid to put people away, not to do justice. Look at Nifong, death row in Illinois, etc...
At least the people Spitzer was trying to bully could afford an attorney...
