    That’s the part that really gets me. The guy had a stellar reputation after 9/11. All he had to do was ride those coattails into retirement. Instead, he had to show America his whole ass.

      And he got into the NYC Mayor’s office largely in part due to his stellar reputation prosecuting mob bosses under RICO. It was a literal double-whammy of national (maybe even global) approval.

      All he had to do was nothing. And he failed.

      His problem is he tried to ride those coattails to the Whitehouse and got trounced. I think it broke his brain. I need a well produced documentary about this scumbags rise and totally epic fall.
