Ed Koch wants Eliot Spitzer to testify under oath, and to “reflect” on how he’s treated people.

In an email he just sent out, Koch wrote:

“I want to believe the governor, because he is my friend and I voted for him and his reform program. His answers under oath will determine my ultimate opinion of his involvement.

“My advice to Governor Spitzer, even before he is called to testify as he surely will be, is that he hold a press conference devoted solely to his knowledge and involvement and that of his close advisors already named as involved in the media, and answer every question.”

And lastly, “he should reflect and look back on how, as attorney general and governor, he has treated people."
