8. Looks like he's getting the attention of the NY Post readers
An exercise junkie who eats healthy and dotes on his kids, Spitzer is still the mild-mannered comic-book character. Spitzer's long campaign against fraud on Wall Street, in which he is seen as an Eliot Ness figure - upstanding, straight-laced and maybe a little dull - only cemented that goody-two-shoes image.

But now that he's got his eyes on the governor's office - with an announcement expected this week - and more voters have their eye on him, Spitzer is trying to show off his looser side.

His charisma was on full display Thursday as he wound his way through the blue-haired ladies and diehard Democrats at a local political meeting held in the dingy basement of a Forest Hills apartment building.

With laundry tumbling noisily in the background, the New York attorney general took on some tough questions about his policy, but he also drew grins. After one older woman gushed that the lean, athletic Spitzer was handsome, he quickly replied that his wife, Silda, "thought it was a joke" when New York magazine named him one of the city's sexiest people.
