I loved this quote:

"King said Republicans "who are supposed to be his friends" should be giving the Staten Island-Brooklyn Republican "the time and opportunity to make that decision" -- whether to resign, to serve out his term but leave afterward or to stay in office and seek another term -- "himself."

--What King means is that the "liberal media" needs more time to manufacture another "controversy" about Barack Obama potent enough to shove Fossella out of the headlines for a couple of weeks (much like the Wright story did for Spitzer--albeit a little too late for him, unfortunately), and give him time to cry and bite his lower lip on cue on camera and announce he's going into rehab.
