In all fairness to Morgan, the communications director, she accidentally picked up a transcript of one of Weiner's sex chats and was reading off that. Apparently he likes to talk dirty during sex.

As he continues with the

As he continues with the never ever give up, real classy operation he is running over there:

Edit to add: If you were writing this as a play, would you have the nerve to add this scene with this particular dialogue for his "communications director"?

Anthony Weiner's campaign manager doesn't agree with Maiello, is pulling out.

Fixed it for ya. Really if we're not going for the double entendre what's the point of this story?

In reply to I am disappointed in you,

And here's Anthony Weiner's record as described by Richard Kim at The Nation: [note, Nation period even better indictment of Weiner]

He was one of eighty-two Democrats who voted for the Iraq War, and he continued to support its funding long after its flimsy rationale had evaporated. But it's on the subject of Israel/Palestine that Weiner truly distinguishes himself. At least twice in public, he has insisted that the West Bank is not occupied, denying a fact that even right-wing former Israeli Prime Minister and settler movement architect Ariel Sharon admitted a decade ago... As Stephen Zunes points out, Weiner's denial fits squarely in a disturbing pattern of squelching criticism of the Israeli state and of making patently untrue statements to do so, including claiming that the United States recognizes the PLO as a "terrorist organization" twenty years after it ceased using that designation.
In his twelve years in Congress, the New York Times notes he "sponsored and wrote only one bill that he steered to enactment: a a measure pushed by a family friend who gave his campaigns tens of thousands of dollars in donations."
Huma Abedin might or might not be the new Hillary Clinton, but Anthony Weiner is definitely no Bill Clinton.

London mayor displays cock in Trafalgar Square - maybe hope for Weiner yet?

In reply to I suspect many New Yorkers

Everyone falls in love - it's part of the ritual:

But for Leathers, at least, the relationship was more than fantasy.

“I cared about him a lot,” she told Moret. “He was very important to me.”

Asked, “You told Anthony Weiner you loved him?” she answered, “Yes.”

“Did he tell you he loved you?” Moret asked. “Yes,” she replied.

But yes, if Weiner wants to be dicktater, maybe he can take Ray Kelly's position. Harvey Keitel already played it out in Bad Lieutenant, way before mobile phones, even if the person he "frisked" was himself. Ewww & ick is right - guess that'll teach the girls not to take daddy's car.

In reply to numbers plural? There's more

I suspect many New Yorkers wouldn't want to vote for Larry Summers either. (Maybe some even because, like Weiner, his skill sets did not include active listening and consensus-building.)

As for all the Bill Clinton comparisons on this thread, I just gotta say I know Bill Clinton, and Anthony Weiner is no Bill Clinton, aside from both being publicity hounds. If you wanna talk sexual matters on that comparison, I will just point out that Monica Lewinsky fell in love with Bill Clinton, while most Anthony Weiner sext recipients seem to end up going ewww and ick. Even if one is prone to favor a dictator type for mayor, one might pause at choosing one that makes you frequently go ewww and ick.
