I figure
this lowlife must have been watching all the slobbering over Ted Kennedy the past week and figured to himself "hey, at least I didn't drown the hookers, so why not?"
Disgraced former Gov. Eliot Spitzer has been privately talking with friends about a possible comeback, and is considering a run for statewide office next year, several sources told The Post.
Less than 18 months after he left Albany in a prostitution scandal, Spitzer has held informal discussions in recent weeks about the possibility of making a bid for state comptroller or the US Senate seat currently held by Kirsten Gillibrand, sources said.
The hooker-happy Democrat has also discussed his own halfway-decent poll numbers in recent surveys, which have shown him more popular than Gov. Paterson, whose own numbers have tanked.
Considering toe fungus is more popular than Paterson, that isn't much of a stretch. Though I consider this trial balloon will burst by this afternoon, buried under an avalanche of ridicule.
"He's weighing it," said one source.
But Spitzer hasn't shown any interest in campaigning for the office he briefly held, sources said.
The sources stressed that Spitzer, who also served two terms as state attorney general before his landslide election as governor in 2006, has not engaged in any active discussions with political consultants.
Reached at his father's real-estate firm, where he has been working since he resigned as governor last spring, Spitzer declined comment.
But a source close to him insisted, "It's not true," and two other close associates also insisted he was not interested in running for office again and was looking at a range of other options.
Here's one option for you, Client No. 9: Go away.
