Eliot Spitzer took the host seat on The Colbert Report Tuesday night, deflecting questions about ever running for office again while discussing the current problems with Wall Street.
Steven Colbert began the interview by chiding the former New York governor for the 2008 call girl scandal that forced him to resign. Alluding to the scandal throughout the interview though never referring to it by name, Colbert went on to say that, in spite of everything, he still liked Spitzer.
“You’ve got no public image to uphold,” he quipped, adding, “It’s better that you don’t uphold your public image at this point.”
Spitzer laughed and agreed, saying “there is a certain virtue to being able to tell the absolute truth and stick it to people without worrying about repercussions.”
