1. he's the odds-on favorite, I think |
|
David Boies would be my other choice. Make Spitzer AG and Boies Solicitor-General and I'll be quite happy.

is considered one of the best lawyers in the country. He prosecuted the government's case against Microsoft under Clinton and won. He represented Al Gore in the Supreme Court and lost. But his arguments were flawless - the court was just corrupt.

3. I thought he was the obvious choice |
|
It seems to me he's filling his resume .
We need a tiger. People want to see corporate heads roll and fear in the CEO's eyes.
Then again, what do I know.
