I'm voting for Elliot Spitzer for comptroller out of loyalty.
As a former New York State worker I have to vote for the governor who gave decent raises (perhaps a little too much) that when all is said and done allowed me to retire without too few money worries.
He was also the governor who saw that state workers are partners in government not adversaries as the present governor does. As governor he wanted his auditors to be proactive as compared to what too many in government want and that's to be reactive ( if enough people make a complaint we'll have our auditors look at it).
Was Elliot Spitzer too aggressive some times, and not showing enough compassion to people who broke the letter of the law but not the spirit? Yes.
Hopefully in his future endeavors he will show a little more understanding.
If we only elect candidates who never broke the law, then we would have almost no electable candidates.
My only worry about Elliot Spitzer as Comptroller of NYC is that this is a company ( Two major industries) town, and the finical heads can be very spiteful.
