Didn't Mark Sanford manage to stay on as governor after his little "hiking trip in the appalachians"? |

 OFFLINE | Looks like he's gone:
Weiner Tells Friends He Will Step Down
WASHINGTON — Representative Anthony D. Weiner has told friends that he plans to resign his seat after coming under growing pressure from his Democratic colleagues to leave the House in the wake of revelations of his lewd online exchanges with women, said a person told of Mr. Weiner’s plans.
The news comes as Democratic leaders prepared to hold a meeting on Thursday to discuss whether to strip the 46-year-old Congressman of his committee assignments, a blow which would severely damage his effectiveness.
Mr. Weiner, a Democrat, came to the conclusion that he could no longer serve after having long discussions with his wife, Huma Abedin, when she returned home on Tuesday after traveling abroad with her boss, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Pressure on Mr. Weiner to leave the House has been building for days, with top House Democrats, including Representative Nancy Pelosi, the Democratic leader, coming forward over the weekend publicly urge him to spare himself, his family and his party any more embarrassment.
But that pressure intensified earlier this week when President Obama publicly suggested that he should step down and Ms. Pelosi told reporters that she was prepared to strip Mr. Weiner of his committee assignments if he did not leave.
At the same time, the House ethics committee had formally opened an inquiry into Mr. Weiner’s conduct, including trading private messages with a teenage girl in Delaware. The investigation raised the prospect that he would face formal charges and sanctions, including expulsion. But with his decision to resign, the investigation is expected to end, since the committee has jurisdiction only over the actions of members of Congress.

 OFFLINE | well, it's like, what else is he going to do? he's not a lawyer, or a doctor, he's just a career politician. and if he goes into lobbying, not too many people are now going to want to be associated with him. |

Perhaps go to work for CNN? Thats where the other pervs seem to end up.
I cant tellya how much i really really disliked this guy. Possibly the most arrogant politican I've seen since Barney Frank. But I have to admit I'm sorry he's gone because the whole Dem party was in disarray while they were trying to deal with this issue.
I was also disappointed to hear the hecklling that went on at his resignaion speech. Maybe he did derserve it, i dunno. But some small part of me was thinking that if the ret of the crowd would punch out the lights of these hecklers...that garbage might end.
Nah...it probably wouldnt.
