Should Republicans be calling for Anthony Weiner to step down?
I ask because there is absolutely no chance for a Republican to win in his district. If he keeps his seat, republicans have another joke democrat to make fun of. Apparently Harry Reid is not one of his fans. Taking these reasons into account, doesn’t it seem that Republicans should support him?

Thats what is confusing about why any Democrats would support him. He will be replaced by a Democrat for sure as well with a voter mandate for an ethical representative. Its a win for Democrats in the long run.

You must be a Liberal because you think Republicans are like Democrats in that they enjoy mocking others when not first attacked in such a manner.
Most Republicans prefer not to do things this way. Most mocking of Weiner is just done as one big sarcastic response to typical Liberal politics against Conservatives. In the end Republicans don't really care if he steps down or not-they only care that if Conservatives catch hell, they know the media is going to try to hide when Liberals do wrong so they step in and do the media's job.

His district can real now be gained by ability of Republicans interior the excellent suited situations. The Republicans might could desire to rack up heavy margins interior the Brooklyn element and Dems might could desire to decrease than-carry out interior the Queens element. the probabilities of a takeover then is going to 0 if a Jewish Democrat is nominated. Anthony Weiner and Charles Schumer who represented the 9th earlier Weiner over-performs the Democratic presidential nominee usually 10 proportion factors interior the interior the 9th because of the fact they are Jewish Democrats. They needed him out to guard incumbents from classified ads interior the subsequent election.

Lets forget the Wiener roast distraction and keep the focus where it belongs...on Obama's completely horrible economic and policy decisions that are driving this country into the ground.
Forget the Wiener, forget Casey Anthony, forget Jersey Shore and Snoopy trash or whatever else theyre dishing out

Republicans should take Nancy Pelosi up on her suggestion to open a House ethics investigation. The whole thing should be televised, and it should be strung out until early November, 2012. Every tweet and every pic should be put into evidence, one by one.

The point that remains muted is. He stood there and lied. About some one adult to another exchange that would embarrass him. Rather that just say he did it. He collaborated with his aids to lay the blame off on Brighbart. So it begs the question. How many times has he stood on national T.V. and lied. Knowing full well he was lying and accusing others of things that were untrue.

No.... They shouldn't. When a political opponent falls off his pedestal, it's a bad move to stand over him pointing or putting a boot on his head.
Let the man and his own party bring about his own demise.

Yes, and so should Democrats. It has nothing to do with what party can win his seat or him sexting. Its the fact that he lied about it multiple times and used House resources when contacting these women.

Every decent American should demand that he step down, regardless of the political leanings of his district
