Gov. Eliot Spitzer faces the unappealing prospect of being forced to resign after he allegedly paid thousands of dollars to a high-priced prostitution ring (the Emperors Club VIP) under the alias, "Client 9." If he quits, Lt. Gov. David Paterson will take over as governor for the remainder of his term.
"I have disappointed and failed to live up to the standard I expected of myself," he said. "I must now dedicate some time to regain the trust of my family."
The Smoking Gun Web site has more information on this case, which will continue to unfold in the weeks and months to come.
