Well, the only reason that I assert that the want to run the state is because he's running for governor
(above is not intended as political endorsement, just backing myself up :) )

It will be intersting to see if Elliot Spitzer goes after this kind of scum like he did Wall Street.

Why would he do that? There's no need any more. He's already established his credentials as a Bold Leader(tm) who isn't afraid to take on Special Interests(tm) and protect the Little Guy(tm). Any further mega-cases would only waste time that he would rather spend campaigning. </cynical>

.. given that he's also pressuring vendors like EBay not to sell stun guns and Tasers to people living in the Empire State - see http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000570062864/. You have to wonder what he's trying to accomplish, banning non-lethal weapons and closing down fantasy chatrooms - see http://www.breitbart.com/news/2005/10/12/D8D6IBDO0 .html. Are there no more pressing matters demanding a state AG's attention? Oh, right - there's re-election. http://www.spitzer2006.com/ That trumps all other issues..

Is this a rhetorical question? It's not exactly a secret that he's running for governor: See his announcement.

No speculation in New York, it's a done deal

By making this contribution I am notifying Spitzer 2006 that to the best of my knowledge neither I nor any corporation which I own or currently control has any matter presently pending with the New York State Attorney General's office.

Damn that Jewey bastard for trying to combat (hah!) gun violence that causes the death of over 30,000 people a year! Fortunately, gun totin' whackos have a pretty good bead on our elected officials, otherwise some sane legislation that both protects people's right to own weapons (you know, as part of a well-regulated militia) and keeps guns out of the hands of dealers that sell semi-automatic weapons out of the back of their truck to anyone may have been passed at some point.

I suggest you find out what other Horrible Acts he has perpretrated! Truly, he is the worst of the worst.

Most likely?

Eliot Spitzer does a lot of good internet work, like suing spammers and enforcing privacy rights, and today he will announce a settlement with five major music labels to force them to pay illegally-withheld royalties to musicians. He's got my vote when he runs for governor.
