In NY, both the Governor, Senior Senator are Democratic Jews. So too is the NYC mayor a Jew. New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer hasn't helped Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton. A question about his proposal to let illegal immigrants get driver's licenses tripped her up in a debate at the end of October and ended ten months of unquestioned dominance in the nomination race.
Now, his apparent involvement with a prostitution ring has not only distracted from her efforts to take down the front-runner, Sen. Barack Obama, it has brought back unhelpful memories of her own husband's dalliances in office. Jay Leno joked last night that Spitzer's scandal "means Hillary Clinton is now only the second angriest woman in the state of New York." David Letterman offered a Top 10 List of excuses Spitzer might cite, including the number one excuse: "I thought Bill Clinton legalized this years ago." In addition, there will now be one fewer superdelegate for Sen. Clinton at the convention.
