Rule #1: Use your brain to make decisions, not your ego. This from a married man; sheesh.

Weiner will probably jump over to join the GOP and get fleabagger backing. Not many democrats are to interested in him. The NYT editorial board ripped him mercilessly, but there are the nilly willy liberals who will vote for him for name recognition and no other reason thinking ANY democrat with name recognition is great..

Women have a problem with Weiner?  Isn't that something like Jews having a problem with Hitler?  Sort of a foregone conclusion?

Why do people think like this? Whenever I've asked someone about who they voted for, I usually get the same response from everyone regardless of which side they're on. Something along the lines of I wasn't happy about voting for him but I felt he was the lessor of the two evils. Very few people are ever truly happy about the people they elect. Very few people ever feel they've chosen the best person for the job. At best they feel like they've elected the person who is going to fuck things up the least.

And yet time and time and time again I hear comments like these about those on the other side of the fence who just love any candidate that is on their own side. I get why people do it. Deep down they feel that those who vote differently from themselves must therefore be stupid. The thing is, when you make broad sweeping generalizations about every member of a competing party being stupid, you only make yourself look ignorant. Just some food for thought there.

That Weiner's getting a pretty dry reception. By the looks of it, he may have to pull out early.

 :shock:

In all seriousness, we can joke about his name, but his "crime" wasn't the texting, or even the pics(unless he had sent them to someone under age). His crime was lying, not the sex act or sex talk itself.

I do get pissed off with "morality police" even if it is on the left. I bet if you could look at the hard drives of most republican politicians and republican voters, you'd find much the same type of behavior.

That is fkn hilarious!!!!  Love it       He was campaigning @ a baptist church over the weekend.  Im sure everyone in that audience can relate to his terrible behavior.  He probably got a phone number from an innocent godly woman who will take it in the ass for Jesus.

What he likes is sending unsolicited pictures of his penis to women.
