of course all the major news networks in the ny area are all about showing the news conference spitzer just had...resigning.  when i first heard the news (of course only wnbc was the one to break the news as i was watching days of our lives) i was quite shocked.  i really did like eliot spitzer when he ran for gov.  there was something about him that just made him i dunno...believable?

what i dont get is why it seems everytime a democrat screws up angry republicans come on the news and say he MUST resign!  yet when a republican screws up....nada.  i have no opinion either way.  of course what he did was illegal.  any regular guy would be thrown into jail.  but hes a politician and im sure there are plenty of others that are client number whatever.  i just think if he is still able to do the job like other republicans ahem bathroom dude (sorry i have mom amnesia and cant think of his name right now...larry craig?).  hes still in office.  i was watching cnn the other day about how one of bill clintons major opponents back in the day called for his resignation/impeachment and then months later HE was in hot water with prostitutes.  yet no one gave him any pressures.

on the other hand spitzer is a hypocrite.  i feel soo bad for his wife.  of course all eyes are going to be on her next move...will she leave him?  wont she?  its tough. 

as for american idol-im feeling bleh about this season.  actually violent.  from my emails to toot he knows how i feel about amanda crackhead wahtever her last name is.  she totally rubs me the wrong way.  my blood just boils when i see her face.  her voice is just too annoying.  its liike she has a skittle up her nose that wont come out.
