Elliot Spitzer’s Madame Wants To Run For Governor Of New York
And I’m all for it. Most politicians are whores. This one would at least be transparent about it.
The race for governor just got a whole lot sexier.
“Manhattan Madam” Kristin Davis is tossing her lacy brassiere into the political ring – with the help of one of the GOP’s most fearsome strategists.
Though he’s often labeled a “trickster,” former Nixon, Reagan and Bushes operative Roger Stone tells us he’s dead serious about getting Davis on the ballot.
“This is not a hoax, a prank or a publicity stunt,” said Stone, who has been quietly huddling with Davis for months. “I want to get her a half-million votes.”
Davis has spoken in the past about running against former Gov. (and alleged former client) Eliot Spitzer – to draw attention to the fact that she served nearly four months on Rikers Island while Client 9 escaped indictment.
“This started out being about Spitzer,” admitted Stone, who in 2007 tipped off the FBI to Spitzer’s hooker habit. “But now that it looks like he won’t run, Kristin still wants to use her celebrity to highlight a reform agenda.”
Davis laid out her credentials last weekend at a Libertarian Party convention on the lower East Side.
“I was valedictorian of my high-school class,” said the golden-tressed Davis, sporting a modest black suit but wicked Christian Louboutins with 5-inch heels. “I worked 10 years in finance. I was vice president of a hedge fund. I went on to build a multimillion-dollar business from scratch.”
All joking aside, it would be nice to see Davis draw some attention to the fact that Spitzer clearly got special treatment in criminal proceedings against him. The woman who arranged his hookers for him gets four months, but Spitzer himself doesn’t even get an indictment?
That’s not justice.
