In the print version of the “In first debate, Spitzer and Faso Differ Sharply” there is such a funny exchange that I went to the web to cut and paste it for my Republican boyfriend, showing Spitzer actually has a sense of humor (a trait I overvalue in choosing husbands as well as politicians). It’s not in the article on the web. So I’m typing it from the print.
There were some unexpected moments of levity. At one point, Mr. Faso, who opposes gay marriage, said that he would veto any bill legalizing gay marriage that got to his desk, and noted that Mr. SPitzer supports gay marriage. 'He says that on Day 1 he's going to force gay marriage down the throats of many New Yorkers,' Mr Faso said.
Before explaining his support for gay marriage, Mr Spitzer said, ‘Let me just respond to John, first, without commenting on his use of metaphors.’ The exchange prompted the debate’s moderator to say ‘We are cable, gentlemen, but not HBO, so if we could keep it clean….’"
