Eliot Spitzer, talk show guest

Earlier this week Mrs. M posted a comment about Eliot Spitzer's recent appearance on Bill Maher's show: "I gotta say, he was so charming, articulate and smart, it made me remember why I proudly voted for him back in 2006, and made me consider voting for him again if he decided to run for office."

We hadn't seen it -- so we looked it up. Here's a large clip from the show. The part with Spitzer (and Paul Krugman and John Waters) starts at the 1:00 mark:

Spitzer seems to be on TV all the time now. Does "talk show guest" count as a second career?

Oh wow, I hadn't seen this part. I think this was the web-only post-show part.

Ahem. So there was no Troopergate as popularly imagined, and Uncle Joe made it into the octogenarian's immunity bubble. Freeze that, rewind everything else to January 1st, 2007, and let's have a do-over. Except this time when the nookie police storm the Mansion, Spitzer says "Feh," turns off the porch light, and goes back to watching Leno.
