1. Most municipalities have the added ability, which most corporate borrowers dont have, of paying off debt by simply taking money from their constituents.(Oopppss, I mean raising taxes.) And if the constituents dont like it, they simply take money/property away at the point of a gun.
2. maybe muni traders simply arent that smart because their boss realizes its almost impossible for a political entity to walk away from debt. See above for rationale.

ummm....why does a NY Governor on a trip to DC have that much cash with him? Where did it come from? Who provided the intro to these hookers?
And, what wife would stay with a man who pays that much to some hooker? I see indictments, divorces and irs questions all looming for the guv'nor!
Considering there are so many slutty women who would do this for free, how sad he had to pay!
So many questions, so few answers.
