3. They just said on CNN this might carry a minimal fine at most. Give me a break.

6. Oh, just a fine for being involved in a prostitution ring?
Well, then no big deal. Certainly no reason to resign as Governor of New York or anything.

20. It is still an infraction of the law and the only decent thing to do at that point is resign.
Ernie Fletcher and some others not withstanding who have even been convicted of more grievous charges while in office.

26. Yes, many of our elected officials that broke the law while in office
should have resigned.

27. I really wish they had. It sets a bad precedent when they basically say,
"Well, you can't force me out so...meh!"

11. But where's the fun in that???
Hit the "ignore" button enough, and pretty soon it'll be like sitting at a computer 20 years ago ... sure, you can play games and write checks, but forget about interacting.

30. Yes, shame on me
My posting this bit of fluff on the internets is almost as bad at one of the highest elected officials in New York being caught in a prostitution scandal. Shame, shame, shame on me.

33. Can we please stop with these threads?
Clinton had nothing to do with Spitzer's prostitution ring...this kind of thread is just tasteless.
