Spitzer Says He Couldn't Control His 'Urges'

Says he thinks prostitution is exploitative

Eliot Spitzer addressed prostitution in an interview Tuesday night, saying he was motivated by "urges" he didn't control, while acknowledging that it's an "exploitive" industry.

In an interview on "Charlie Rose," guest host Mark Halperin asked Spitzer what motivated him to hire prostitutes and risk his career.

That's just what you want in an elected official, someone who can't/won't control his "urges".

Probably shouldn't trust him with the city's finances, then should you?
