Nation Ed. Expresses Concern That Spitzer Was "Targeted"

Via Raw Story:

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough talked with Nation editor and publisher Katrina vanden Heuvel about the Elliot Spitzer scandal. Vanden Heuvel, a classmate of the New York governor's at Princeton, expressed concern that Spitzer was targeted unfairly, while the MSNBC host called the probe a waste of resources.
Newsflash: Joe Scarborough makes sense! It does happen once in a great while. Although if I were Scarborough (and thank Jeebus I'm not), I'd avoid such quotes as "I'm against hookers being wiretapped." It sounds creepy.

PS Why is it that every time I hear Katrina vanden Heuvel's name I'm reminded of Johann Gambolputty de von Ausfern-
