Albany Smackdown Scorecards
http://nymag.com/news/intelligencer/27854/

"Governor Spitzer may be, as he bluntly put it, a f***in' steamroller—but he’s also the guy getting steamrolled. Last week’s wild ride in Albany could cause whiplash: The Dems were able to win a costly seat in the State Senate; the man who now controls billions of the state’s dollars was unanimously passed over by a panel of his predecessors, then picked by his pal anyway; and the two most powerful pols in the state—who share the same party—declared all-out war on each other. We broke the mess down in the categories that matter to these guys: macho posturing, moral superiority, and who won this round."
