After I posted yesterday morning that Eliot Spitzer’s problems were likely well beyond the $4,300 of published reports, the New York Daily News reports today said that he may have spent as much as $80,000 on prostitutes, and that the may have used state funds to fly to and from the rendezvous points. The report also states that the liaisons have been found to go back about 18 months.
If true, this adds yet another layer to the hypocrisy of Spitzer, whose office last year went after New York State Senator Joe Bruno, the top Republican in the state, for using state funds (a helicopter) for political business.
