NBC Touts Prostitution-Plagued Eliot Spitzer as the 'Next Comeback Kid'

Over on NBC's Today, correspondent Kristen Dahlgren hyped Spitzer as "the next comeback kid." Comparing the ex-governor to Anthony Weiner, Dahlgren enthused, "2013 may go down as the year of the second chance." Despite connecting the two New York Democrats, Dahlgren also skipped any ideological label. It wasn't until the 8am hour that co-host Natalie Morales alerted, "The Democrat stepped down in 2008 over a prostitution scandal."
