Besides the wives and children, who are the true victims of high-placed leaders’ tawdry sex affairs? Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, of course! Former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer and indicted Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick are (or were) both Democratic superdelegates. Spitzer was in the tank for Clinton, while Kilpatrick reportedly favors Obama, even though the Obama campaign halfheartedly denies it. So what happens when reckless oversexed Democrats let their personal addictions interfere with their public lives? They make the increasingly weird superdelegate count even less predictable. Of course, none of this matters if Clinton and Obama superdelegates keep cancelling each other out by getting caught in embarrassing situations in equal numbers. [Political Punch, NPR]

Or is it? NOTICE: You must watch to the very end. The very end. And this is all you get because Ashley’s Girls Gone Wild embarrassment will be forever sealed (until it’s leaked on the Internet this weekend) because it turns out she was only 17, the end. [Thanks Pareene!]

Everyone knows that fun things are bad for you, and if you do enough fun things repeatedly then you are an “addict.” A man who has fun sex with hookers, for example, is a shamefully diseased sex addict on the verge of sexing himself to death. But generous Fate intervened on behalf of addict Eliot Spitzer, who has reportedly entered therapy to cure himself of this strange compulsion to have enjoyable no-strings-attached sex with young women. How long before the cure “takes”? MORE »

There are two iconic Washington hotels, swank palaces so famous that their very names have come to define the two main activities of our political elite: corruption and whoring. The first, of course, is the Watergate. The second is the Mayflower, which was named for the famous pimpette Sydney Biddle Barrows, the “Mayflower Madam.” It’s a little pricey even by D.C. lodging standards, so if you’re a regular there, you’re probably a regular user of $4,300 hookers — according to the liberal New York Times.

Tired of Ashley Kristen Alexandra Dupre yet? Us too! But not US Magazine! The celebrity weekly has about a thousand pictures of Eliot Spitzer’s allegedly high-class hooker, and they’re all about as bad as this one, and we think the official title of this set is “The Official Seal of the Great State of New Jersey.” Remember that picture of a pretty young Ashley/Kristen in a bikini on a yacht? That was apparently taken in 1978. [US Magazine]

Some “secret footage” of pop music star and model Ashley Alexandra Dupre, the former prostitute who brought down ex-New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer 20-odd years ago, has been discovered by the cultural terrorists who produce the boob-flashing Girls Gone Wild series. According to TMZ, which has taken over the New York Times as the news source of record on Dupre, “‘GGW’ has ‘a week’s worth’ of video of Ashley celebrating her 18th birthday, which she did on the big bus. We’re told that ‘GGW’ plans on releasing an Ashley Dupre-specific video ’shortly.’” Be sure to check out the late-night GGW promos on Comedy Central for an official release date. She. Never. Goes. Away. [TMZ]

Here is a clip of the Massachusetts Speaker of the House joking at a St. Patrick’s Day breakfast about how his very young, idealistic, underpaid female employee is a prostitute. We have a name for folks like Sal DiMasi: they are called “fat assholes.” [WBZ]

David Paterson got off to a hot start to his hours-long New York governorship tonight by telling the New York Daily News that he had an affair with a lady for years. But how could he even know what he was doing — maybe he thought he was meeting Eliot Spitzer at a T.G.I. Friday’s, and couldn’t tell the difference? Well, he confessed, so we’ll give him the benefit of the doubt that he is not making up this affair. What points will you need for cocktail hour this morning at your job? MORE »

The new guy, the blind New York governor who isn’t even the nation’s first blind governor, he has also had sex affairs with ladies who were not his wife — or at least he thinks he had such affairs. Maybe it was just his wife after all. He’s blind, remember? Moments after being sworn in after the other adulterer had to quit, latest-Governor David Paterson told the NY Daily News that he likes sleeping around, too! Oh, and it gets better, because his wife also has affairs. Shocking additional revelations will be posted in just a few minutes. [NY Daily News]

Forget Silda Wall Spitzer — the biggest victim in the whole Eliot Spitzer Prostitute Sex Scandal 2k8 is Louisiana Sen. David Vitter, who has become the target of a heinous elitist liberal smear campaign. While Vitter had sex with a high-priced call girl, like Eliot Spitzer, he lashed out at reporters yesterday who suggested the incidents might be, say, similar? Vitter reminds us that they are not at all similar, because of his stance on The Illegals, and other such things. MORE »

LARRY KING IS STILL INSANE: The excitable senior covers Kristen-Ashley by jabbering, “How does the escort feel, Kathleen? And, apparently, it’s going to get, if the term is right, more huge.” [Extreme Mortman]
