I never thought Spitzer's philandering was a problem. At least he was, ahem, stimulating the economy. Better to hire a pro than get your secretary emotionally attached. Yikes!

Elie -
CNN would be a major drop in publicity for you. And that's saying something. Last I checked CNN's ratings were like 7, and not in rank, just 7 people.
