What are people thinking?

Honestly. It's ridiculous.
So, by now most of the country has probably heard of the Elliot Spitzer thing. And if you haven't, then you're probably just some sort of hermit under a rock on an island without cable signals. -Shrugs-
Anyway.
Elliot Spitzer = Governor of New York.
Or, he was the Governor of New York. He resigned yesterday, after publicly apologizing for...well he didn't specifically say what he was sorry for. Of course, we already know what he should be sorry for.
Evidently, he was hiring prostitutes. And this is a guy who was always noted as the shining star of everything good. Yep. Real star on the Christmas tree, that one.
Worst part? He has a wife, and three teenage daughters.
Do these people just think they won't get caught? That they're above the law because of their positions? Is it pure ignorance or arrogance?
The guy doesn't even have many friends, because of the way he got into power by elbowing everyone else. No friends, prostitution evidence against him, and complete and utter hypocrisy.
I'd wish him luck with this but he doesn't deserve any.
