Just to be clear, I think that McGreevey, General Theological Seminary and the Bishop of New York (whose approval would be necessary for McGreevey to be considered a candidate for the priesthood) have clarified that McGreevey is not currently seeking to become a priest.

I guess what is turning my stomach are the stories of his not wanting to wear a condom. We all know he is not stupid, so I guess it points to arrogance.

The lady in question-from the New York Times of all places. I quess having 25 reporters working on this story gets you a great deal on info:
Woman at the Center of Governor’s Downfall
She left a broken home on the Jersey Shore at 17 and came to New York City to work the nightclubs as a rhythm and blues singer. Now, at 22, she is the unwitting, and as yet unseen, star of the seamy drama that is the downfall of Gov. Eliot Spitzer of New York.

Richest man in England also a regular of prostitution ring in Spitzer scandal
The richest man in Great Britain was a customer of the same high-end prostitution service patronized by Gov. Spitzer.
The Duke of Westminster, listed as the world's 46th richest person by Forbes magazine, hired four hookers over a six-week stretch in late 2006 and early last year, the News of the World reported last year.
Despite his incredible wealth, multi-billionaire Gerald Cavendish Grosvenor haggled with one of the Emperors Club girls for the cost of their date, according to the report.

LOS ANGELES - Stop that $1 million check: It turns out the call girl linked to Eliot Spitzer had already shed her clothes for “Girls Gone Wild” as an 18-year-old while partying in Miami, the video company’s founder said Tuesday.
Joe Francis had reached out to Ashley Alexandra Dupre, now 22, with an offer of $1 million to appear in a non-nude spread for his company’s new magazine, plus a chance to join the “Girls Gone Wild” tour bus, his company announced Tuesday.
But Francis said someone had a revelation at the Tuesday morning staff meeting: Did anyone think to check the archives?

Spitzer call girl sues 'Girls Gone Wild' for $10 million
MIAMI — The call girl linked to the downfall of former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer sued the founder of the "Girls Gone Wild" series on Monday for $10 million, claiming he exploited her image and name to advertise the racy videos.
Ashley Alexandra Dupre, 22, contended in the lawsuit that she was only 17 _ too young to sign legally binding contracts _ and drunk on spring break in 2003 when she agreed to be filmed for "Girls Gone Wild" in Miami Beach.
