So the New York governor, Eliot Spitzer… the crime fighting warrior… is up to his eyeballs in crime.

Ok.

The moment this story broke yesterday, the first thing I noticed was.. I couldn’t find a reference to the party with which he belonged.

I finally found it… once I visited Michelle Malkin’s page: a Democrat.

Ok.

So my prediction was - and is - that he’ll fight tooth and nail to stay in office and not resign. After all, as a Democrat, he’s a victim, not a criminal.

Whereas if he had been a Republican… he would have been resigning by now. Not to mention the fact that, as a Republican, his party designation would have been plastered across every news story across the country.

With Republicans now saying “Quit or Be Impeached,” I think he’ll receive some heat from his own party to do just that… otherwise he could further damage the Democratic Party more than he already has.

I expect him to fight. We’ll see.
