True. It was a popularity contest, too, with the Dems; they obviously were uncomfortable with the Congressman's outspoken ways regarding important issues. I think Obama should have kept his opinions to himself about Weiner, OR he should have stood up and really backed the things he said he would support when running for President, as Weiner would have done!
So Foley is getting back into politics already.
Of course, giving out photos of yourself to consenting adults on the Internet is far worse than being a pedophile.
