America at Its Best: Spitzer Scandal Brings Out Good Old-Fashioned Entrepreneurialism

By Ken Silverstein

If you’re planning to cash in on the Eliot Spitzer scandal, it may already be too late. “When the chips are down for the Governor of New York, the people rise up, show their support and…register a sh*tload of domain names,” dailybull.com reports.

The vast number of Spitzer-related domain names registered during the past week includes:

client9spitzer.com

clientninespitzer.com

eliot-spitzer.com

eliot-spitzer.org

eliotnessspitzer.com

eliotspitzer-prostitution.com

eliotspitzerclient9.com

eliotspitzerclientnumber9.com

freespitzer.com

governorspitzerporn.com

governorspitzerporno.com

hypocritespitzer.com

idonotswallowbutispitzer.org

naughtyclient9.com

spitzergotscrewed.com

As the Harper’s colleague who brought this to my attention remarked, “I can’t help but admire the all-American entrepreneurial pep of betting on spitzersextape.com.”
