It's very easy to explain. The "Sheriff of Wall Street" made too many enemies. If you take this approach in your political career, you better have an empty closet. Did you see anyone come to his defence? The silence was deafening.As a New York resident, I expect more from my Governor, who campaigned on a reform platform. Some have tried to say that what he did was personal He shouldnt have to step down for getting mixed up in a high priced call-girl ring, transporting a women across state lines for the purpose of prostitution, wiring money for the purpose of illegal activity, not once but several times over the course of many years. Try going to YOUR boss after being named in a federal indictment and telling him that its something personal that wont affect my job here. See how that would fly.
To bad there is no law against hiprocrisy
