NEW YORK, NY September 22, 2007 —Governor Eliot Spitzer says now that a report has cleared his administration of any wrongdoing in the trooper scandal, it's time to get back to state business. But Republican officials say it's not over yet. WNYC's Elaine Rivera reports.

RIVERA: The Albany District Attorney's report concluded that Spitzer's aides did nothing illegal when they used state police to monitor Senate majority leader Joe Bruno. But Bruno says two ongoing investigations remain a cloud over the administration.

Russ Haven, of the New York Public Interest Research Group, says there's one reason why Bruno wants to stay focused on the scandal: he wants to hang onto his razor-thin majority.

HAVEN: And so part of his game plan is likely is that he wants to neutralize the governor from going out and helping to get Democrats elected to the state Senate.

RIVERA: The Senate Investigations Committee, along with the state's Commission on Public Integrity continue their probes.
