RE: ELIOT SPITZER’S “REDEMPTION RUN” FOR CONTROLLER OF NEW YORK CITY, MIKE SAYS ABOUT TODAY’S POLITICAL PROCESS: “WHAT THE POLITICAL PROCESS HAS BECOME NOW IN THIS COUNTRY, NOT JUST FOR RUNNING FOR CONTROLLER OF NEW YORK CITY, BUT FOR NEARLY MOST OFFICES AT EVERY LEVEL…PEOPLE DON’T WANT TO PUT THEIR NAMES OUT THEIR IN PUBLIC LARGELY BECAUSE OF THE SPOTLIGHT—SOMETIMES TOO HARSH OF A SPOTLIGHT—THAT THE MEDIA PUTS ON THEM. I THINK THERE ARE AN AWFUL LOT OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE A LOT TO GIVE WHO WON’T RUN.” ON MORNING JOE ON MSNBC.
