"Never write when you can talk. Never talk when you can nod. And never put anything in an e-mail."
In a world where everything you write, whether to an office colleague or to a friend, has potential to be blogger fodder, it's too bad Eliot Spitzer didn't take his own advice.
UPDATE: Just read a story about this and there are 26 reporters attached to it. Pulitzer Prize material has many fathers and mothers. But can you imagine if we could throw half of that to a breaking story.

I thought he was just working his way up to the oval office.

heh. I was at a New York press conference for Spitzer back when he was attorney general. Ask him a question he didn't like and he dismissed you as if you were an idiot. I know. I asked one of those types of questions. Having said that, he certainly was considered presidential material at one time.
