Elliot Spitzer has booked the indoor location for his inauguration party already, the Pepsi Arena, soon to be the Times Union Center.

Theres 18 days to the election.

Hahah. Any thoughts?

[Conan]

He shouldn't have done it before the election, but, yeah, New York is a foregone conclusion.

I think its just really funny.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

This display of crass arrogance will hand this race over to Faso on a plate!

[Deano963]

How funny would it be if Spitzer sent Faso an invitation to his Inauguration Party before the election was even held?

Well, when you are 50 points ahead, you can do stuff like this and get away with it, so why not.

This may have cost him the election....

In Hamilton county.

So does the mob.

[Joe Republic]

I endorse Jeanine Pirro (R).

Ha ha, I remember her.  The Katherine Harris of New York.  I wonder how she would currently be doing if she hadn't dropped out of the Senate race?

She's no Katherine Harris. She's socially liberal and qualified. Hillary was just unbeatable.

[Joe Republic]

Uh... wow.  I thought you were kidding.

I take it you never saw her speech announcing her candidacy, where she lost a page of her script and froze on live TV for about 30 seconds?  Or that time she was giggling and chattering loudly outside a policeman's funeral and was told to shut up by one of the officers?  Or that time she claimed that New York borders Ohio?  Or that time she claimed ignorance over some fraudulent joint tax filings that she'd signed, and her husband took the wrap for?

And that was all in the few months that she was an official Senate candidate!  Like I said, imagine what kind of laughs we'd have had if she'd stayed in the race.

She's the most qualified person running for it.

[Joe Republic]

Qualification for the role is irrelevant when you run a campaign as idiotically as she did.

lol and why is that?  Finally knocking off one of the "three men in a room" for an anti-corruption FF is really a great stride for New York.

Hilarious! The NY Democratic party made a hilarious ad out of it that ended with the words "Jeanine Pirro.....without a script she's speechless".

I believe it was actually a play on words that read "Without a speech, she's speechless", which was an even better way of putting it.
