We could add Elliot Spitzer to the list as well-he was both corrupt and power-mad, using his position as NY governor to twist arms in addition to thinking it was ok to rail against prostitution, but use it himself.
New York is fast tying with New Jersey with its growing list of corrupt, power hungry Dems.

Nepotism is still an abuse of power.
Yes, I wasn't missing Mr. Spitzer in my list. I had actually typed him out but somehow erased him during an edit. NJ doesn't have a monopoly on corrupt politicians either.
