If I recall correctly, the accusation of assault against Spitzer fell apart. There is still the issue with prostitutes, but, to your point, that seems quaint. Beyond that though, he was a very unpopular Governor and failed in his last NYC race (though not by much, as I recall).

Spitzer was elected governor by the widest margin in New York history. After his fall from grace, he attempted a comeback by running for comptroller of New York City but lost in the primary to Scott Stringer, who is now a likely candidate for mayor. But if Cuomo is now a viable candidate, even Matt Gaetz is a credible candidate for governor of Florida.
Spitzer was very popular the day he was elected. I personally really loved the guy. He basically immediately started to piss off absolutely everyone and was headed toward an aborted political career even without the prostitution scandal.

Kinda funny that Stringer then lost out on his Mayoral race due to sexual misconduct. Seems to be a theme here unfortunately.
