Brookbit: Markowitz Speaks on Spitzer

Borough President Marty Markowitz's statement on the resignation of Gov. Eliot Spitzer: "In what can only be called a personal failure and tragedy, Governor Spitzer leaves office with great promise unfulfilled...I join all Brooklynites and New Yorkers in supporting our soon-to-be-Governor David Paterson. David and I served together in the Senate, and I have no doubt this Harlemite born in Brooklyn will prove to be a very effective Governor—by bringing people together, working with both Democrats and Republicans, and restoring people’s faith and trust in Albany."--GL Inbox
