Weinergate, XXIV

via Sully:
We do not know his marriage vows. No one has charged that he had sex with anyone other than his wife. He did not break the law, as Spitzer did. He was not engaged in hypocrisy as Spitzer was. And he didn't secretly father a child, as Schwarzenegger did. Apart from that, they're all the same.
Exactly.  Weiner was stupid, but right now there are plenty of people in Washington trying to make your life as difficult as possible, and Weiner isn't one of them.

Of course, between Obama saying he'd resign and Pelosi pushing him to quit, and the specter of something worse popping up I'm guessing he'll fucking quit.  I still stand by him hanging in there a few more days, until somebody else shows up with a sex scandal.
