It’s being reported that disgraced New York Governor Eliot Spitzer officially announced his resignation from his Manhattan offices/bachelor-pad as of this morning.

Spitzer’s resignation will take effect Monday, at the request of Lt. Governor William Paterson, who insisted there be time for an orderly transition of Government – no doubt while Spitzer destroys evidence and pardons countless prostitutes.

Patterson’s poised to become New York’s first blind African-American Governor – a historic first for the State of New York, second only to having it’s 1st term sitting Governor ruin his entire political career because he tried to pay a hooker by check.

Senate Republican Leader Joe Bruno – seen high-fivin’ his way into an Albany briefing room this morning – had no comment for reporters on the Governor’s personal troubles.

Richard Martin has reportedly met with the Governor’s transition team and is fully prepared to resume his duties in carrying the mantle of tasteless tabloid fodder forward.
