ALBANY, N.Y., July 8 (UPI) -- Joseph Bruno, the New York Senate's majority leader, says Gov. Eliot Spitzer likely did make obscenity laden comments about him.
The Republican New York senator not only said he believed the Democratic governor had made the derogatory comments about him Saturday, but offered some observations about his state's leader as well, the New York Post reported Sunday.
"I hear from other members of my conference that the governor has been extremely nasty about me and my leadership when he talks to them, and I think it's unfortunate that the governor of this state stoops as low as he does with personal attacks and threats against people with whom he disagrees," Bruno said.
"He will truly say anything and have tantrums, literally, when he gets upset. He's just too temperamental and he really needs to learn how to be a chief executive."
Bruno's comments came after the two politicians exchanged accusations recently. Bruno has accused Spitzer of illicit campaign efforts, the Post said, while Spitzer has countered by saying Bruno is controlled by lobbyists.
