Ex-Gov. Spitzer Talks Politics in NY’s Capital

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP)—Former Gov. Eliot Spitzer talked about politics during his first public appearance in New York’s capital since a prostitution scandal forced him from office in 2008.

Spitzer told a public radio fundraiser Sunday that Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton should run for president in 2016.

Spitzer praised Gov. Andrew Cuomo for pushing to legalize same-sex marriage last year. But he panned the governor’s handling of legislative redistricting.

The Times-Union of Albany reports that Spitzer did not rule out another run for office for himself. But he said it’s not something he thinks about when he wakes up in the morning.
