But he's just speculating.



I read somewhere else that the whole story seems way too fishy, like he
was targeted for some reason. Like maybe they needed to find at least
one democrat after all of the republicans that have been caught with
their hands in the cookie jar, or caught in homosexual acts or pedophile
acts or......




Maybe another Republican's been caught in a public bathroom, the news
hasn't broken yet, and this Spitzer thing's a way of drawing attention
away from the NAMBLA contingent in Congress.



Good grief. All the damage control conspiracy theories percolating away
about news that is only 24 hours old.

I can't understand all this wailing at Republicans. The damn New York Times
is sure as hell not a Republican newspaper! The headlines for the last two
days have not been 'Spitzer friendly'.

Pure speculation on my part, but there is an interesting aspect to
this whole imbroglio.

Spitzer busted some big prostitution rings. Normally, prostitution
enterprises like this are mob connected, if not run by same.

The two really big ones Spitzer busted were connected to the Genovese
crime family which specialised in this type of activity.

The other organization that is connected to this particular "industry"
is the Bonanno crime family.

In theory one could wonder if Spitzer was "protecting" his favorite
escort service on behalf of the Bonanno's?

In particular where he had been utilizing these professional services
for at least six years and quite possibly ten or more?

Maybe it involves something he started before becoming governor. It's said
he's relentless to the point of being weird.

Being close to Redneck status, I've no knowledge of all these families.
But, it *is* an interesting theory.

You could use the word 'may' a few times and get a good story going. Hell,
the NYT might buy it, unless they're owned by the Bonanno's also.

Something like, "Spitzer may have been protecting his favorite escort
service on behalf of the Bonanno's."
