How long before Spitzer weighs in on big oil?
ByDerekWith California Attorney General Bill Lockyer being the first to launch an investigation into oil company “profiteering”, I’m sure the antithesis of big business, Eliot Spitzer, is chomping at the bit to get in on the action and play to the hearts of the liberal voters.
