Those who were fooled by Eliot Spitzer's overblown reputation and fuzzy ads are now seeing him for real. He is a limousine liberal who is beholden to the special interests like Local 1199, and payback is coming big time. And how comforting that he is following John Corzine's transition model; what's next, Corzine's tax increases?

Margaret Thatcher once said that consensus is the negation of leadership. Spitzer, so far, is proving that he is (and has been) a finger-in-the-wind politician who has few consistent political convictions.
