Any More Spitzers Among The Super Delegates?

digg Share this on Facebook Huffpost - stumble reddit del.ico.us RSS

So here's the question du jour:

Any more Spitzer-like crapola hanging out there among you Democratic super delegates?

Any hookers? Blow? Airport bathroom sex? Text messages to pages? Overnight Boy Scout trips? Land deals? Golf outings? Romps in hot tubs -- gay or hetero? Sweetheart earmarks?

Anything at all?

Because if there is and it doesn't come out now, you're running the risk of screwing the party -- the entire party -- at some point between here and the general election.

You're setting yourself up to be the new Tom Foley. Or David Vetter. Or Eliot Spitzer. Or Bill Clinton. Or whoever.

Maybe the DNC should do opposition-like research to make sure all the dirty laundry is out. Or make waterboarding legal just for vetting the super delegates prior to the convention.

Because if it's hanging out there, it's going to come out. So let's do the right thing, super delegates. You owe every passionate, principled primary voter and caucus attendee a clean, level-headed vote. A vote free of any stink of possible coercion or blackmail real or imagined.

So what do you say super delegates?

Any more crapola out there?

Impossible...the nature of the business attracts an ego that is rarely content.

Of course there's more crapola out there, Peter. Most politicians are just one phone call away from an indictment.

I've got a good idea - why don't we let those without sin cast the first stone?

Superdelegate Bill Clinton is still hanging out there and he's been a very naughty boy since he left office in 2000.
