Weiner?  He'd be a possibility of course but I think it's clear that his dream job is NYC mayor and little can stop him from trying to win that in 2009.  I don't know if he wants to be a senator.

Nita Lowey. She would've been the Junior Senator from New York now if Hillary didn't carpetbag and steal the nomination.

She's pushing 70 years old.  The nice part about Weiner is that he could conceivably hold the seat for decades with no issues (he's ~40).  But of course he doesn't want it.  Perhaps Spitzer would just go with a placeholder such as Lowey or Mark Green and let the voters decide in a special election come 2010.  (But how would that work, exactly, with another election in 2012?  Perhaps it'd just make sense to let the placeholder hold the seat through Jan 2013.)

I don't think he'd have a choice. Any appointed Senator must face election the next election after their term.
