Have You Ever Tried To Put A Condom On A Steamroller?

Ew. Ew. Ew:

“He was one of my more consistent bargainers,” said Kristin Davis, who ran a high-priced prostitution ring in Manhattan.

Davis, 32, who wrote a book about her years running the $5 million business, said Spitzer was a regular customer when he was governor and attorney general, and would pay $800 to $1,200 an hour for dates — the lower end of the scale, which went up to $2,500.

Davis also detailed what she called Spitzer’s aversion to condoms, saying it got him banned in 2006.

In an excerpt from her book, published in the April issue of Penthouse magazine, Davis said Spitzer, who called himself James, was “too aggressive” in trying to avoid using protection, prompting complaints.

“He’d be a real weasel about it, too,” Davis wrote. “After the begging, pleading and commanding didn’t work, James would pretend to relent, only to change to another approach.”

When she confronted him, Davis recalled Monday, he lost his temper.

“He started yelling at me and I said, ‘That’s the kind of aggression I’m talking about,'” she said.

Still, were it not for the Emperors Club we wouldn’t have the best Slate columnist ever; he’s a much better as a commentator than he was as a governor. Thank you, Alexandra Dupre!
