Here is the plot description for “Client 9: The Rise and Fall of Eliot Spitzer”:

This documentary feature takes an in-depth look at the rapid rise and dramatic fall of New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer. Nicknamed “The Sheriff of Wall Street,” when he was New York’s attorney general Spitzer prosecuted crimes by America’s largest financial institutions and some of the most powerful executives in the country.

After his election as governor with the largest margin in the state’s history, many believed Spitzer was on his way to becoming the nation’s first Jewish president. Then, Spitzer’s meteoric rise turned into a precipitous fall when the New York Times revealed that Spitzer – the paragon of rectitude – had been caught seeing prostitutes.

As his powerful enemies gloated, his supporters questioned the timing of it all. As the sheriff fell, so did the financial markets in a cataclysm that threatened to unravel the global economy. With unique access to the escort world as well as friends, colleagues and enemies of the ex-governor (many of whom have come forward for the first time), the film explores the hidden contours of this tale of hubris, sex and power.

The movie trailer for “Client 9: The Rise and Fall of Eliot Spitzer” can be watched now below.

An honest politician? Uh...

… probably not. But, as much as I hate dishonesty, I daresay that some amount of it is necessary in politics. If you want something to get done in a system that already exists, you have to get someone who can play in that system. You don’t have to like it, but you DO have to accept it.

Honest Politicians

An honest politician is an oxymoron. There is no way a politician can be honest and also have a long career as a politician. This is not possible because you need to lie and make everyone happy to keep their votes.
