Investigation of mortgage fraud

The NYT's editorial today had me thinking: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/26/opinion/a-mortgage-investigation.html?_r=1&hp

In particular this part: The administration must ensure that the group has ample resources. The co-chairmen must hire a tough-as-nails prosecutor with a successful track record in financial fraud to drive the investigation forward. And the group must move quickly and vigorously, issuing subpoenas and filing cases. It is not starting from scratch; various agencies have all had separate investigations under way.

Maybe they should call up Eliot Spitzer. Any other names come to mind?

If Vitter can have his whores and get re-elected in f'ing Louisiana, and Newt can do what he's done, why can't we resurect Spitzer?
