Spitzer Retakes Chinatown
Eliot Spitzer is back...sort of. Can I ever forgive him? For the hooker, sure, but not what he did to railroad Wall Street.
He return was not quite as triumphant as Douglas MacArthur’s, but he established a beachhead in Chinatown.
Baby steps, you know…
If Eliot Spitzer were to choose a venue at which to make his re-entry into society, he would presumably not have selected a former massage parlour in Chinatown on the Lower East Side of Manhattan.
But Mr. Spitzer, who resigned as governor of New York state after getting caught up in a call girl scandal this spring, did not get the choice. Happy Ending, the former parlour in question, is now a sleek bar and it is where Slate, the online magazine was holding its seasonal drinks party.
Mr. Spitzer this month started to write a column for Slate as part of his comeback - he wrote last week about the Detroit bail-out - and so he showed up at the Slate party to be sociable.
Hilarious, go check it out…
