This is one of the finest op-ed pieces I've read in a long time. It is spot on, imo.

What is your view of her? Heroine or idiot?
Hey, remember Diaper Man? What was his name? That Republican? Oh yeah, Senator David Vitter? His wife Wendy "stood by him" and "forgave him." He was that guy that routinely visited prostitutes so they could diaper him, put him in a giant crib, feed him a giant bottle, and have sex with him.

Nothing different than Hillary Clinton. These people are in it for the power, prestige, and the money. Putting up with bubba's indiscretions may get her the White House. Huma knows the value of putting on a face for the public. Watch, she'll become Senator or a Representative, because people are the naïve idiots, not her.

The fact that Weiner called himself "Carlos Danger" should send a message to NYC voters.

Huma is married to an unemployed politician. He has no power whatsoever. As far as I know he is not massively wealthy. When she goes out with the girls, do you they say "how is Anthony?" I can't think of a good reason for her to support him publicly. Her husband is a serial liar.

She has everything to gain by separating from him, especially if she has a political career planned. Unfortunately they have a child together to complicate things.
I AGREE. He needs to crawl back under his rock or at least quit running for office.

I believe in redemption ~ but this is a man who apologized, resigned from his position, and then CONTINUED sending those ridiculous tweets.

He ain't no Bill Clinton or even Newt plus - that whole tweet thing is just ridiculous - is he 12?

He would not get my vote. He's got some s e r I o u s issues

The wife is a disgrace for all women. Sorry and isn't there a saying...fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice...

To stand there like a fool just for power control later on is showing to me that she is a Hillary wannabe and Hillary was already stupid or maybe smarter to benefit but Weiner is no Clinton!

Will the next woman be a girl and Weiner be on dateline predators edition..

LOL. How to catch a predator! Oh, how I miss Chris Hanson and those episodes!

But that would be quite hilarious and sad if his impulsive psyche led him to being caught like that.

OK Tony, your name is already Wiener. Do you have to prove it?

The Weiner (and other) defenders sound like 3 year olds sniffling, "Mommie, Mommie, Johnny did it first!"

Deflect and blame someone else. It's all they're good for.

Oops... he's running for mayor of NYC, not governor of New York state (19.5 million residents) as I quoted earlier; therefore, he's not fit to be the mayor of the 8.5 million residents in New York City.

Carry on .
