Where Is Eliot Spitzer During This Illegal New York City Transit Strike?

The New York Sun asks where's Elliot?:

"If he were governor, I don't think he would be as aggressive as I would be," Mr. Weld told The New York Sun. "Mr. Spitzer should be asked whether if he were governor, would he fire the members of the executive board and any leaders publicly advocating a strike."

As the lawyer for the state of New York, Mr. Spitzer has sought to enforce the state law prohibiting public employees from striking and has pressed for heavy fines against the union. Yet while he is of the most recognizable faces in politics, Mr. Spitzer has kept himself largely out of the headlines during the transit crisis. He also has yet to call for more severe penalties, such as firing labor leaders or jailing Roger Toussaint, who is not a city government employee.

What's Spitzer's close relationship with the Transit Union? Why does Spitzer get worked up about corporations but seems to be rather quiet when a union shuts down America's largest city??
