Washington Post [1]: Richard Cohen wants to know how Hillary Clinton failed her country.
The New York Times [2]: Eliot Spitzer is expected to approve the Freedom Tower, with a view to the booming downtown real estate market.
More Eliot in the Times [3], in reference to the Comptroller fiasco. A typo: the Times refers to one 'relatively obscure' Assemblyman, ignoring that they are all mostly obscure, and deservedly so.
Surprise! The new Q-Poll [4] gives Spitzer a 61-11 positive rating, while Silver and Bruno – the bouncing baby boys of Albany dysfunction – receive a 48-31 disapproval rating.
Still not going away [5]: The Daily News rips some more flesh from yet another worthless Assemblyite, noting that they're starting to get a vague apprehension that their hackery has been noticed.
And lastly, not a news item, but an appeal: can't someone start a process that would give us term limits for the state legislature? Here's an idea: Contact your Assemblyist [6] and tell them exactly how you feel. Urge them to embrace term limits, step down, retire, whatever it takes. Just get those people out.
