      It was a decade and two months ago that Spitzer resigned — although he’d moved up to the governor’s office by time his crisis hit. https://mobile.nytimes.com/2008/03/12/nyregion/12cnd-resign.html …pic.twitter.com/dFCdRSZN5j

          Back in NY, it looks like we get to return our focus to the always interesting New York State Legislature, which — with both chambers acting jointly — “shall appoint a person” to fill the attorney general’s position.https://codes.findlaw.com/ny/public-officers-law/pbo-sect-41.html …

          The NY attorney general’s office also was already up for election this fall. The filing deadline for candidates is not until July 12 — so we almost certainly are going to see a bunch of candidates, unless the legislature happens to pick someone who can take over the field.

          The real question, for starters, is how quickly will the NY legislature act? By my read of the law, they technically could appoint the person who will fill the office tomorrow, before Schneiderman even leaves the office.

          Until the legislature acts, NY Solicitor General Barbara Underwood will take over as acting attorney general after Schneiderman leaves office, the NY AG’s Office confirmed late Monday night.https://www.buzzfeed.com/briannasacks/new-york-attorney-general-schneiderman-abuse …

          Strange... Has @DonaldJTrumpJr said a single word about this case? He's had so very much to say about Schneiderman. It's almost if he exploits abuse for political points.

          So we can't use "but Clinton" re Trump, yet "but Greitens" is totally cool for #Schneiderman? Is there something Trump & Greitens have in common that differs to say similarities between Clinton & Schneiderman? How about Nunes & Schiff? Same standards or different?

          Republicans never admit wrongdoing and then ultimately blame it on others. It’s in their DNA.

          Because, he is the GOP and they have no ethics, morals or the ability to think for themselves and what might be best for their constituents. Dems demonstrate a much stronger sense of ethics. Go Dems. So says an Independent.
