She’s been scheminꦐg since high school to dominate꧂ the halls of power.
Spitzer gal pal Lis Smith took her inspiration from Lady Macbeth, Machiavelliꦦ and Nietzsche while at tony Bronxville HS — quoting the trio on her 2001 sen🐟ior yearbook page.
“Look like the innocent flower, but be the serpent under♓’t,’’ she wrote, citi🌸ng Lady Macbeth.
A bright, ambitious political junkie from early on, Smith is now known as a pit𝕴 bull among her foes — and just as aggressive wh💫en it comes to dating powerful men.
Her love interest before Spitzer was a top President Obama aide whom she dated while they worked on the president’s 2012 re-election cꦏampaign, sources said.
First, she stole the man away from his girlfrie🌜nd — then turned vicio🐭us when he dumped her to go back to the other woman, an Obama insider told The Post.
Smith, 31, took a screen shot of a string of raunchy text messages her former lover sent her, the source said — then sent it in an e-mail blast to more tꦇhan 100 Obama staffers, including top campaign aides David Axel😼rod and David Plouffe.
Another political insider said that, as with Spitzer, it was just like Smith to get tangled up with someone in power where she workeওd.
Smith was Spitzer’s communications director for his failed bid for city comptroller when the pai🦩r began 🦄a relationship, sources have said.
“She definitely dates men in positions of po☂wer and politics,’’ the source said. “She’s not a girl’s girl. She doesn’t have any girlfriends.”
While she studied at Dartmouth, Smith’s boyfriend was another𒉰 politician: former Missouri state Sen. Jeff Smith.
The pair ha💜d a four-year romance starting in 2005, when he was a visiting political-science professor at the school and she was a student.
After Jeff Smith was convicted of trying to cover up an election-law violation, in 2009, Lis wrote a glowing l🦋etter of support to his sentencing judge.
“Every minute he didn’t spend with me, he spent working to make the 🍒City of St. Louis a better place,” she gushed.
Her lawyer mom, Adrienne Smit🍃h, who had backed Spitzer on Twitter after he was axed from a talk-show hosting job with CNN, stood up for the senator, too.
“As my daughter is statuesque and beautiful, I expected t❀hat anyone in whom she had a romantic interest would be similarly endowed,’’ the mother wrote.
Sheꦐ added that despite meeting Jeff and finding him short and scrawny, he was “a comple📖tely delightful person.’’
