My two cents
Governor Spitzer what a maroon! I guess he forgot to go to the Governor indoctrination course. Surely if he had he would have realized that governors are allowed to cheat on their wives. They are allowed to carry on an affair for years and even have state troopers help you out gettting new recruits. Governors can be adulterers all they want just as long as they don't hire a prostitute. In fact you can do all this as a governor and later go on to be president. Or at least I assume what the governor handbook must say.
Seriously thought my first response was to pray for the man and his family (yes I am also amazed that this was my first response so I guess Lent must not be a waste of time after all this year.) Though my thoughts go downhill from there to some extent. I do not exactly have joy at his resignation, but I can't say I am unhappy about it at all. I remember my first introduction to him was that the first thing he did as Attorney General was to try to close down crisis pregnancy centers. He is about as unapologetically pro-abortion as they come and hardly even pretends to mince words on the subject. The bill that he has declared a top priority aim is to make abortion a fundamental right and to eliminate any possible restrictions. The question now becomes how much of a pro-abort is the new Governor? Though it would be hard for him to be as pro-abortion as his predecesssor.
Known as 
The new governor is no improvement over Mr. Spitzer. When in the State Senate he opposed the partial birth abortion ban, the unborn victims of violence act, parental notification; he supported unrestricted Medicaid funding for abortion, embryonic stem cell research, cloning, wide availability of "emergency contraception", forcing Catholic employers to cover contraceptives in health insurance policies, and limits on peaceful pro-life protests at abortion clinics. He also supported no-fault divorce and "gay rights". He has been a major player in an initiative that will provide hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars for embryonic stem cell research.
New face, same old anti-life agenda.
One wag on the net says that the Governor's getting ready for his next gig already, a movie with the tentative title "Eliot Hires a Ho".
We should also pray for "Kristen" (Ashley Alexandra Dupré). I have more hope for her than Spitzer.
Spitzer is a mere wheelbarrow of crud compared to the dumptruck of muck the mayor of Detroit is dumping on our city (and the state of Michigan, too!) with his alleged perjury, sexy text messages with his former chief of staff, affairs on the city's dime, and a $9 million payoff in order to keep all this secret. I'd provide a link, but it's too scandalous.
Still, I'm praying for our elected leaders so that we may live in peace and security...
You are a better man than I, Jeff. My first response was to jump up and down and yell "WOO HOO!!!". My second was to find his "non admission of guilt" and play it over and over, guiltily trying to avoid looking at the painful expression on his wife's face". The third thing I did was imagine his wife punching him in the nose and knocking him off the podium about 15 seconds into his little "speech". The 4th thing I did was scour the internet looking for commentary from people he made his enemies, and reading all of the horrible things he did to them. He was more a persecutor than a prosecutor. The 5th thing I did was look on YouTube for the inevitable parodies and played them over and over. The 5th thing I did was wait with baited breath for his resignation, and when it happened I again jumped up and down and yelled "WOO HOO!!!". The 7th thing I did was pray for his wife and girls. The 8th thing I did was pray for him.
I'm probably going to have to go to confession now, which is not an entirely bad thing.
