I’m going to actually enjoy seeing Spitzer as Governor:
Even though he hasn’t officially won, I’m getting that tingle that you get a few days before Christmas staring at the presents under the tree. You know what’s in the big box but you just can’t wait until you can open and enjoy it. Now Democrat’s in New York are getting that same feeling, mine is for a different reason.
I’m going to enjoy as Spitzer scrambles to find a way to pay for everything he’s promised especially as New York’s tax receipts will start to slow as the economy tops. Spitzer is going to have to either go back on his spending plans or raise taxes.
I’m going to enjoy as his “reform” pledge amounts to nothing except maybe a timely bloated budget and Silver getting the boot.
I’m going to watch upstate New York see no improvement.
The best though will be watching New York States real-estate market tumble. New Yorkers will see the value of their homes decline, making them angry with no one to blame but Eliot.
It’s going to be fun times by all.

Elliot is a God
I think that’s a little extreme. I like certain politicians but I would never go as far as to say anyone is God even in an attempt to exaggerate my feelings for them.
Frankly I don’t think most Democrats in this State really know anything about Eliot Spitzer other then he went after some guys on Wall St. conveniently a couple years before he wanted to be governor. What was he doing the decade prior? The main reason Democrats like him is because he’s a Democrat and can hand them the mansion.
You can think he’s God and you better be right if he’s going to magically fix what ills you, which I think is nothing. After making Gay marriage legal what else is he going to do?
If we’re lucky he’ll leave the state the way Pataki left it to him. Odds are it will be worse. The country's economic cycle is peeking to the upside with nowhere to go but down. I’ll enjoy watching Eliot squirm as he watches New York’s tax receipts decline and is faced telling all those open hands he can't payback the favors he promised.
