In the wake of scandalous reports that New York Governor Eliot Spitzer frequented an elite escort service, many have wondered what drives his wife to stay by his side. Silda Spitzer ascended with her husband to his podium of shame yesterday as Mr. Spitzer related to the world that he has a predilection for high priced prostitutes, envelopes stuffed with cashy cash, and posh hotel rooms (often in the same night). Clutching his hand and staring blankly into la la land, you can almost hear Silda hearkening back to her days as a little girl, when she dreamed about the knight in shining armor who would give her the world, an armful of dreams, and maybe, just maybe, a nasty venereal disease:
"When I grow up, I want to marry a man who crusades for the common man against the dark forces of capitalism. I want a man who will leave no stone unturned in his quest to stamp out unchecked greed. I want a man who will stand up for honor, integrity and the honest ideal of American prosperity. I want a man who's blood run thick with ambition. And beyond all else, I want to marry an unfaithful sex fiend who turns into a dirty, dirty slut lover the second he's out of my sight."
