SPITZER DROPS ROPE ON PRESS

November 9, 2006 -- THE self-proclaimed "People's Governor" wasn't so welcoming to all the people at his victory party at the Sheraton in Midtown last night. Organizers for Gov.-elect Eliot Spitzer decided to cordon off the press with red velvet ropes and burly bouncers so the ink-stained wretches wouldn't be able to mingle with supporters. "It was offensive," said one reporter. "This has never happened at a victory party before." Another journo bitterly asked, "Is this what he means by 'Day One, Everything Changes'?" To make matters worse, Spitzer's backers were allowed to charge through the press pen, bumping into reporters as the bouncers opened the velvet rope for them. "It was like they were the gatekeepers for some exclusive nightclub and the reporters were left out on the sidewalk waiting to get in," said another annoyed attendee. When reporters asked who was responsible for the inhumane treatment, several aides played dumb - but admitted it was Spitzer's storm troopers, not the staffs of Sen. Hillary Clinton or Attorney General-elect Andrew Cuomo, who joined Spitzer to celebrate their wins.
