The Governor of New York, Eliot Spitzer, is expected to resign today after news broke this morning that he has been involved in a prostitution ring. According to an Associated Press report, Spitzer was involved in the “Emperor’s Club” that was busted last week.
The Web site of the Emperors Club VIP displays photographs of scantily clad women with their faces hidden, along with hourly rates depending on whether the prostitutes were rated with one diamond, the lowest ranking, or seven diamonds, the highest. The most highly ranked prostitutes cost $5,500 an hour, prosecutors said.
UPDATE: It appears the Governor of New York was only a client (from what we know so far).

Clinton and Spitzer, Im proud to be from NY
‘Involved does not mean running it; apparently he was ‘Client #9′. It takes taxpayer money to be able to afford $5,500 per hour prostitutes.
Yeah that came out right after, I updated it. Thanks Mike.
Who knows, though; maby he was working there trying to balance the state’s budget :))
