Things keep getting worse for disgraced New York governor Eliot Spitzer today.
New York Assemblyman James Tedisco, a GOP minority leader, revealed today that he will introduce articles of impeachment to the State Assembly in Albany if Governor Spitzer doesn't step down within two days.
Tedisco claims in an interview with CNN reporter Wolf Blitzer that he gave the two-day reprieve in case he was making arrangements to abdicate his position to lieutenant governor David Paterson. However, it was revealed to the New York Times that he will not be resigning Tuesday. No other future plans have been revealed.
The potential new governor David Paterson has not been contacted by Governor Spitzer about any possible resignations. He arrived in Albany today, greeted by a large mass of media, where he clarified any questions about his possible transition into the governor position. He said no one has contacted him about plans pertaining to a transition or Spitzer's resignation.
