Spitzer Resigns in NY

Gov. Eliot Spitzer resigned today from his position as the governor of New York. Caught in a scandal in which he was known as Client 9, it was leaked that Spitzer was a frequent prostitution customer.

Checking his once squeaky clean image, Spitzer appeared in front of the media with his (poor) wife to announce his resignation.

The scandal broke on Monday, when Spitzer was accused of spending thousands of dollars in Washington D.C., the night before Valentine's Day, as per MSN.com. The father of three seems to have a lot to be ashamed of.

Lt. Gov. David Paterson, who is legally blind, will take office on Monday.

This is the third occurrence of a resignation in the tri-state area- flash back for all of those in Jersey to "I am a gay American" from former governor McGreevey.

Who's next?
