We may be hearing a bit more about Silda Spitzer in the coming weeks. The negative parallels between her husband's indiscretions and the ancient news that Bill Clinton was also caught smoking cigars with a 22 year old are too prominent to be overlooked.
Moreover, Hillary's publicists are visibly desperate...

Too bad Spitzer was hounded out by the puritanical feeding frenzy of the media mob.
This moralistic fanaticism - fueled by the media's relentless exploitation of sex for ratings and profits - has happened too much of late and threatens to destroy too many worthwhile public servants for minor...

Everybody can tell you where he or she was when they first heard about it. When I saw the headline, I thought maybe that somebody at The Onion got ahold of the New York Times front page. Eliot Ness caught with hookers? How could such a thing be possible? It...

We learned almost immediately that Client 9 was Eliot Spitzer. And that his $1000 an hour rent-a-gal "Kristen" was really 22 year-old Ashley Dupre. But that 800 lb. pink polka-dot elephant lurking in the shadows of The Mayflower's room 871 turns out to be none other than Bill Clinton. Not...

The Mann Act, long relegated to the status of bawdy Frank Sinatra punch lines and literary asides -- Lolita's Humbert Humbert deplores the law as "lending itself to a dreadful pun" -- is serious news for the first time in a century. In the wake of Eliot Spitzer's resignation, he...

This is not a joke. Really. As I was writing yesterday's post on my own Heartfeldt Politics Blog "The Bigger They are, the Harder They Fall (and Vice Versa)", I realized there are important leadership lessons in this Shakespearean tragedy.
Besides the obvious one -- well actually two if you...

Hanna Ingber Win - Why The Obsession With Silda?
Maybe all the attention being paid Silda Wall Spitzer is a sign of a shift in times, and she will be the last wife to...

Silda is everywhere. In email exchanges between friends, in discussions around office water coolers, on television shows and radio reports, in op-eds and articles. In the midst of a massive scandal concerning sex, money and a self-righteous-turned-self-destructive resigning governor, our country has chosen the wife to...

I've changed my mind. I want Eliot Spitzer back.
I'll admit it: I flew off the handle. I got worked up about the "unprotected sex with call girls" business. It was a gut thing. I've stayed at the Mayflower. Now I have to sleep on top of the bedspread,...
