oh my -I am sooo behind the times. Well, now that the Dems are in power, that makes it so much easier for me! (hehe) When i was a grad student in Albany, i knew many up and coming Dems who are now big deals. Still, that republican criminal lawyer I know is gonna get a phone call from me tommorow. i used to babysit his children. he's been in Albany and well-connected since the early 80s and has defended some very high profile corruption cases. I'm sure he knows who is connected and who isn't.

And good for Elliot Spitzer! He's got fire in his belly.
