Eliot Spitzer May Run for Comptroller

Spitzer has been all over the Tee Vee Machine lately, so you know something had to be up:
Former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer (D), "who stepped down from the governor's office amid scandal, is now strongly considering a run for state comptroller," sources tell the New York Post.

"Spitzer has in recent weeks had discussions with some Democratic donors and insiders about the position currently held by Tom DiNapoli."

"It's unclear whether a Spitzer candidacy would rely on a Democratic donor base, or if the former governor -- whose family is wealthy -- is thinking of pouring his own dough into a campaign. It is also unclear if he would challenge DiNapoli in a primary, or if he's considering running as an independent."
So it's a maybe, perhaps, could-be situation. Clear?
