Eliot Spitzer was cut from CNN's prime-time lineup this week.  Spitzer spent less time as a TV host than he did as governor of  New York.  As many await word on Spitzer’s next move,  today’s  Fordham Conversations will take us back to an interview  between director of the Forum on Law, Culture and Society at Fordham Law, Thane Rosenbaum and Eliot Spitzer.
