wi Spitzer was not caught

He's probably going to win re-election barring some massive upheaval. Maybe he could be a potential candidate in 2016.

Probably governor of NY and potentially senator or even POTUS if he thinks he can win.
 
I still argue he was just trying to stimulate the economy.

If Spitzer remains in office, that means no David Patterson and no Andrew Cuomo election. In personal history, it means I wouldn't have to hear every Conservative in New York complain about Patterson and Cuomo. On a larger scale, we used to talk about Spitzer on the national political stage. So maybe he could be a vice president or a prospect for the presidency.
 
Spitzer got caught by laws that he had had passed.

He was clearly, at that point, being self-destructive, probably having lost the will to govern. If it wasn't that scandal, it would have been something else.

What you need is for him not to have given up/had a mid-life crisis/whatever it was that happened.

But, yes, if he had managed to keep his self-discipline and keep focussed, he could have easily ended up as a presidential candidate.
