Hmmm. So I'm not the only insomniac tonight. I can't tell whether this is supposed to help my nightmares or make new ones...

She's just a kid, not much older than his daughters. Spitzer is quite the f'ing perv. Yeah, he's gonna have his own special little place in hell.

The question was asked on one of the national news programs -- why do so many successful men risk ruin by having extra marital affairs, or in this case, involvement with prostitution?

Well the answer involves two characteristics. First they are men who by their nature are attracted to women, particularly good looking women as in this case. Second, one of the characteristics of very successful men is that they are risk takers. Few risk adverse people ever get to the top of any heap. We only hear about the men who get caught, so it's likely that many more very successful men are also fooling around.

Classy girl. Flashing faux gang signs and passed out in a bar. Spitzer did his part in helping this girl spiral down out of civilized society. But hey, it's just 'a personal matter between him and his family '.

"She's just a kid, not much older than his daughters. Spitzer is quite the f'ing perv. Yeah, he's gonna have his own special little place in hell."

I hadnt considered this. Just makes it all the more creepy doesnt it? He could've found a 35 yo I'm sure.

I applaud her entrepreneurial spirit. There aren't many lawyers that can get away with billing $5,500 an hour for screwing someone, but she can. Hopefully she's saving her money and will be able to retire soon. Especially after Playboy pays her a mint for posing...

That was worth 5000.00, a career and a family? I've had better and didn't drop 5K in the process!

DUMB ASS!!!

Beware that while another case of a politician and a call girl gets such extensive coverage, the barrell of oil has reached $110, and the dollar fell to the Euro. In addition, the head of the armed forces in Irak quit for disagreeing with the Administration on Iran (over the existance of weapons of mass distruction in that country). That is the type of "screwing" we should focus on!

Nessman, it's a peace sign genius...she's holding it up in several of her other photos as well.

im not saying this man was right in what he has done, but does someone dislike him so much to blow this up? they knew a long time ago where this money was going..now its been made in to some federal case..again wasting tax payer dollars.... i would think that they would go after this company. now this hooker is going to be in the headlines for god knows how long..last night they had an expert pimp on anderson cooper.. who knows maybe they'll find a few more senators, governers, congressmen using this service and destroy a few more lives...i mean if they want this man out of office do it in a different way,not disgracing the entire family..

Peace Sign is with Palm Out.

Palm In, in Europe, is equivalent to middle finger only here.

i do not think that its a good idea to bring the identity of that call girl to the public.

You know if prostitution were legal none of this would be a problem. This country is filled with too many morally backward people. His wife obviously wasn't helping at home or he wouldn't have been going somewhere else, so as far as her "feelings" she is partly to blame.

Beware that car is an idiot BDS sufferer.

"Recent press reports suggesting a disconnect between my views and the president's policy objectives have become a distraction at a critical time and hamper efforts in the Centcom region," "the current embarrassing situation, public perception of differences between my view and administration policy, and the distraction this causes from the mission" makes resigning "the right thing to do."

"In a subsequent Washington Post article, Fallon called the story "poison pen stuff" and "really disrespectful and ugly."

So thanks to the media, we lose a good man. You're an idiot car.

"Peace Sign is with Palm Out."

Thats ridiculous, I don't even need to go into steering you towards the most likely millions of photos available of people clearly flashing a peace sign in every which way imaginable. If you take a look at her other photos, it is clear that she is in to flashing peace signs. This isn't to say she isn't "gangster" or whatever, I mean look at her myspace page, but get real.

ever heard of sensationalism? perfect example. i feel bad for the girl

She looks like a tranny in the second picture.

D-Hoggs:

C'mon, the V-sign in the UK and eastward has been around forever. I distinctly remember a picture of a Soviet bomber crew flashing the V sign to the US jet (that captured the Kodak moment) sidled up to it back during the Cold War. Not that I think the morons flashing it on My Space have a clue.

Or maybe its a PIECE sign and we're supposed to imagine a tongue wagging between the fingers...

Huhhh...
SPITZER, Just an S and a T more than a pizer.
Why you all think this guy is wrong? Was he a priest? Has he got HIV? Why make a big deal out of a natural phenomena? Did Clinton resign after the Lewis case? If SPITZER were a priest or a pastor i would bother, he has not been preaching against sex or prostitution. And why can't the FBI learn to respect people's private lives? Now the wife and kids will be even more hurt than if they never heard about it.

SPITZER is a great guy who has done much for New York. Dupre is as hot as hell and many engaged husbands can feel her aura.

To say the least, i know there is 99 days for the thief and one day is all it takes to break down. Many other barons are doing so to spice their relationships. He could have divorced like Mr Sarkozy and get Dupre in but for the love of his family, he wets his appetite time and again outside so that he can enjoy his own wife when he gets home. Maybe they have been having a boring sex life who knows?

So let's see the good side of things..i know federal authorities like to act expressively.

It's no wonder this country is so screwed up. We have two wars going on, we're on the brink of destroying the planet, genocide is occuring in Africa and for the past week this country cares nothing more than where someone stuck his..... Amazing. People get a life.

And why are we giving this tramp free publicity? Another symptom of the ills of our voyeuristic society - we just have to know, have to see, don't we?

Next she'll be appearing on some Celebrity gameshow...

"So men have no choice sometimes but to sleep around! Having one girlfriend or wife and sleeping with her is like eating the same food and drinking the same soda daily. How long are you going to do that before you lose appetite?
Therefore, Mr. Spitzer should not get all the blame. When you get bored with sleeping with your wife, what do you do? Divorce her???? Besides must wives and girlfriends will not perform some sexual acts that their husbands and boyfriends might desire."

Wow. That one says a lot about you. "No choice," eh? Ever hear of the term "self control." Ever hear of the word "maturity." It includes the recognition that we don't always get what we desire. Some of us, for example, really "desire" a faithful spouse.

In any case, everyone keeps referring to how much dough this silly woman was making. That really shows your naivete.

Do you really think the high-class pimps she works for don't take the largest cut?

How can anyone feel sorry for this girl? She made a lot of money by being a hooker. Look at her myspace page, it says a lot about her. Pictures of stacks of money. A photo album basically dedicated to the 'bad news' which includes pics of the ex governor, the hotel, and the hotel room door. She is enjoying this attention and will bank even more off of it. Pathetic. I work my butt off and will never make the money she has and will. So no Boo-Hoo stories about this girl, she's as bad as he is in my book. She isnt doing this to survive, or is just barely getting by. She lives in an expensive complex and is rolling in dough. I hope her 15 minutes of fame run up quick and she ends up bankrupt.

Ashley Alexandra Dupré: Don't make me out to be a monster she says! How about a common whore; not ho but whore, let's not sanitize the word with popular culture.

This is like the story about a very proper lady who, when asked if she would have sex with a strange man for a million dollars who states that yes she would do it, for a million dollars. But when asked if she would do the same thing for a one hundred dollars, she exclaims, "What kind of girl do you think I am?" to which the response is, "Madam, we have already established what kind of girl you are. Now we're just quibbling about the price."

To be honest... I don't believe he ever went to bed with her.... I've used hi-priced prostitutes before for purposes entirely in the interest of industrial contracts and I never went to bed with them. My secretary was a lesbian who contracted them for me to get the million dollar contracts which makes sense... We live in a non-Christian world. I still use prostitutes to do me some informative favors.... My 2 deceased wives knew and we never had any problem... If you're over-religious go see your councellor, but don't judge others.... You're sick ! Judgeing by Elliots wife's reaction she has no reason to give up on her man....l You guys just don't make sense... Elliot is simply not a ladies' man...
Drop the sensation.... Donah////

this woman is no kid. she is a whore and a lawbreaker just as the governor. she should be prosecuted for her crime. but i see a book and a movie deal for this low life prostitute!

Spitzer is not resigning because he got caught in an extra marital affair, which by the way there's no law against (unless you're in the military). Spitzer broke federal law when he transferred money across state lines is support of a criminal enterprise (the prostitute ring) and he is likely going to be criminally charged. That's why Spitzer is resigning.

It's not his wife's fault either. Some men desire the hunt as much as they do the capture. Spitzer wouldn't even be prosecuted if he were not a high profile public figure. It's not that the feds are trying to destroy him for personal reasons, it's that we can't allow people in powerful political positions to compromise themselves. Any unscrupulous person with proof of Spitzer's involvement with the prostitute ring could have blackmailed him into doing favors.

If law enforcement looks the other way when they find such cases than it wouldn't be long before the U.S. government is as corrupt as Mexico. Spitzer took risks and got caught and now it's time for him to get out of government and stay out of it.

I haven't looked it up, but unless I'm mistaken this Monday New York will have it's first black governor.

Epador, for your information, this woman is from the US, this story is an American story, nobody cares about what you think a V sign means in the UK. In the US, what she is doing in all of her pictures, if you care to look at them, is a peace sign, plain and simple. The peace sign is big in "gangsta" culture here in the US, as in "peace out". You're being ridiculous.

Her site has now been deleted, just within the past hour or so.

Nothing like one whore (the media) talking about another.

Disgusting... both that he would throw away his and his family's life for a mediocre looking girl, and the girl herself. She says she doesn't want people to think she's a monster? Far too late to be concerned with that my dear, you should have thought about that BEFORE you acted like human trash.

Hmmm, who is being more ridiculous?

Donah - are you kidding me? The man has a wife, a family, and is a famous politician...why in the world would he need to hire a prostitute to help with getting contracts? What a joke!

For the people saying she's just a kid - I'm 22, and I know better than to whore my body out for money. 22 may be young, but it's sure old enough to know what's good for you and when you're in the wrong. No one forced her to do this. Both Spitzer and Dupre are to blame, and the fact that she's getting off without charges is just going to show children that prostituting yourself is a fine thing! It might even get you a record deal and a reality TV show if you sell your bikini pictures to the right people! How long before she's the Maxim covergirl?

these women should be prosecuted, and not for prostitution...but for price gouging!

we're the victims here.

I would like to wonder whose wife is looking at the picture of her on the boat with the flag flying and saying...hey...she screwed my husband too...she is a trashy tramp who has certainly destroyed many families...and probably many more to come...I believe she wanted her name revealed because she wanted the publicity and possibly a career out of it...

Nice x tattoo on your hand. Ghetto trash.

geez skanky looking and not at all pretty
