Democrat New York Governor Eliot Spitzer was linked by The New York Times to a prostitution ring. According to the paper he was under Federal investigation and even wiretapped. They allegedly have records of him contacting one of the girls through e-mails or phone. He's identified as "Client #9". Ironically the man was an Attorney General who used to fight corruption and vowed when he was running for Governor to fight any unethical case in New York. Now he's involved in one.
In a news conference he gave earlier today The Governor didn't deny any allegations, seem committed to stay in office and fight the public persona. He also made some public apologies to his family "I have disappointed and failed to live up to the standard I expected of myself," he said. "I must now dedicate some time to regain the trust of my family."
Once he's charged with a crime expect him to resign, especially with the pressure from the media and the public.
