Have phone sex with me and you can work in my administration. What a guy!
But, yeah, the defenders/enablers who say it's just between Carlos and his wife are right.
It's not the voters business in any way, shape or form.
On Monday, the Dirty claimed that Weiner who allegedly used the alias Carlos Danger met the unnamed 22-year-old woman on the social-networking site Formspring in July 2012, sent her lewd photos and had phone sex with her before the relationship "fizzled."
He promised her a job and a condo, said the site, which posted pictures of body parts and graphic messages about sex acts.
"Even post scandal, I thought he was misunderstood. Until I got to know him," the woman was quoted as saying. "I thought I loved him. Pretty pathetic."

(84,711 posts)Jack Hidery...who seems to be supported by the NYC Tech Community. And, if it's TECH given what we know about Spying Info...could Weiner have been set up?
Look ...I don't think he's a candidate I would support because his conduct offended me when he had to resign.. But, I used to live in NYC...and that's why I'm interested in this race.
I wonder if Tech Background Hidery...could have found REAL DIRT on Weiner...or it was Weiner needs "help" with an internet addiction where he is always "looking for chicks"
show his "stuff" too. Or is it a Rove Type thingy against Weiner?
Where do these Politicians COME FROM these days?
Anyway check out Jack Hidery. He has a lot of NYC Tech Support and an interesting background.

"I thought I loved him. Pretty pathetic."
She's such an embarrassment she should have her PMS privileges revoked.

Both are close to the Clintons. Don't believe me...check it out yourself.
It was a sad thing all around. He couldn't keep it in his pants and I think that Hillary and Huma had a bond through all of that...sadly.

(34,825 posts)someone, or two, posted that we don't know that Huma isn't cool with Anthony's extracurricular activities. I think the guy is a dick, and has shown incredibly poor judgment time and again.

(84,711 posts)his personal life. If a Repug does what he did...we go after them....but, I can't quite accept that he had a "need that couldn't be fulfilled" except from Prostitutes. And...I have no problem with women who choose to be Prostitutes..(have always thought it should be legalized)....but Men or Women with "Secret Lives" in Politics...does bother me a lot. They can be Blackmailed/Compromised and if they had a "Need" then divorce the wife amicably and then consort with whoever you want. But, to lead a "Secret Double Life" makes me worry about their Character. If they lead another life once...they might be prone to do it in other areas of their lives.
I think many of us have had enough of this kind of behavior from Politicians that leaves them vulnerable to "being bought" or worse. imho....
