Grover is a lobbyist and a superpac owner.

Grover Norquist has been virtually singularly responsible for the record-setting inactivity of John Boehner's House, and the reason why our credit rating was ruined by the Tea Party.

Every Republican answers to Grover and Rush. Republicans being primaried right now are due to their lack of fealty to Grover.

The Republican Party signs the tax pledge of a lobbyist that created his "national financial plan" when he was 12 years old (Grover brags)

Sources are only credible to Riot if they support her position.

She would provide a link to the voices in her head if she could.

You might have made the points using another source?

Spitzer should have disappeared in shame long ago. IMO

look, i know the guy's rep. but i saw the article on slate, so i posted it. so, there may be others who have made those points-but i figured i'd put it up rather than look elsewhere to see if someone who didn't hire hookers had made the same argument. now, whether the source is a good guy or a bad guy notwithstanding-the facts are the facts in that article, aren't they?
so, sticking just to the points in the article, what are everyone's thoughts on what was said?


edit~come to think of it, i doubt it would matter who wrote it. the gist of it would still be ignored. i would imagine that many who post here have already made up their minds one way or the other.
i actually haven't yet-if i had to vote today, i'd probably vote for a third party candidate.

Spitzer also lacks credibility since he was a man drunk on power who governed as a bully who forced people out who disagreed with him (sound like anyone here?). He also is a Keynesion follower which are principles that have been proven to not work. He also left a mess in New York by banging a hooker with his socks on.
