Governor Carcetti?

Watched the last episode of "The Wire" last night, and now there's a story that could have been ripped right from the show... our dumbass governor got caught in a prostitution sting. I can't believe I voted for this moron

This seems like one of those instances where the loudest finger pointer is actually the one doing the dirty work... just like all of those religious right guys who went down in the last few years. Definitely not good news for the Democrats in an election year.

Yeah, I had high hopes for Spitzer right after the election, but he got bogged down in Albany and never accomplished anything. What an idiot... this guy could have run for president in a few years.

NO SPOILERS DUDE. WARNINGS ARE APPRECIATED.

No spoilers here, just government corruption, Wire style.

Also, McNulty commits suicide.

I saw The Hives when I was in NYC in 2005 and I totally agree. Show lasted maybe an hour 15, tops, but it knocks you on your ass with how good and intense they are live. Howlin' Pelle is the best lead singer out there right now.

Yeah same for us... maybe an hour, hour-ten including the encore, but it still felt like a long show because it was so intense. I'm having trouble finding anything to compare it to... Jack White has the same charisma, but The Hives were just kicking ass. Great show.
