A thought on Spitzer

Liberal Eagle's post on Eliot Spitzer vs. George W. Bush makes a good point, but doesn't point out why the treatment of these two politicians is so different. I think it's really quite simple. George W. Bush has always looked after the interests of CEOs and others with power in the corporate world. Eliot Spitzer, on the other hand, took them on. There was cheering on the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange when Spitzer's problems hit the news — that's how much the people with real money, the people who pull the strings, hate the guy.
