It Was A Privilege And A Gift To Spend Two Years Traveling This Country

This reminds me why I will never contribute money to any political campaign:

Campaign filings reveal some five-star politico-ing this year. Andrew Cuomo’s attorney-general campaign has paid for three purchases at Bergdorf’s Fifth Avenue store, along with a trip to Jamaica’s Pegasus resort, a stop at Bliss spa, and a stay at Beverly Hills’ chic Avalon Hotel. . . . Eliot Spitzer’s filings suggest the Wall Street sheriff has a banker’s taste: The gubernatorial hopeful has stayed at the Four Seasons in Boston, Chicago, and San Francisco, where rooms go for around $500 a night . . . A.G. aspirant Mark Green, who at the time expenses were filed had raised far less than Spitzer or Cuomo, spent accordingly: One exotic purchase was made at Sephora. Spokesman Corey Johnson says Green wasn’t being vain; he’d bought bottles of Cumming (the fragrance named after Alan) for two men who chaired a gay fund-raiser at Green’s home.
