Spitzer's Fall
W
ould everyone be happier if Spitzer had given his female friend an $80,000 diamond necklace instead? Or 40 gifts worth $2,000 each? Or paying the rent and food bills for her?
What I mean is, would that have eliminated the prostitution charge and turned this debacle into another "(married) boy meets (single) girl" story?
What exactly is it that, in situations like this, separates a "kept woman" or "kept man" from a prostitute?
Maybe he should have promised to divorce his wife . . . .
