Running after a scandal like that? That takes balls.

He is a passionate advocate for progressive goals, but he should expend that energy outside of public office. I hope he finds his place. This goes to show how insidious political offices are in corrupting a person’s knowledge and acceptance of self.

Well merkin you did work the word “hard” into your post so you get partial credit.

I actually have some sympathy for Weiner. Much of what happened was his private business and none of ours. He did show bad judgment and then compounded the problem by lying for a week. While I don’t agree with him politically on much he struck me as a pretty effective politician. Maybe he needs to set his sights lower for a while but he deserves a second chance. Lord knows if Charles Rangel and Marion Barry can get re-elected Weiner has a shot.

You have to seriously question the man’s judgment. If he is going to run for any office he should have run for his Congressional set after he resigned.

It is hard watching a boy trying to grow up in the public eye.

Sorry that I couldn’t turn any of this into a penis joke. I am in a serious mood today.
