How Do You Spell Irony? An Anthony Weiner Story Coming Out On National Hot Dog Day, That's How!

[Dave]

How could I not post this story when it comes out on National Hot Dog Day? It was almost a compulsion that I had to do it.. haha. I can only hear the comedians now, they can't wait to comment on this. You'd think Anthony had learned his lesson but I guess he hasn't. His wife is standing behind him, even appeared at a press conference to talk about the story. So far he's opted to stay in the race for Mayor of NYC, wont know for a bit how this new allegation will affect his candidacy.. wouldn't think it would be good for it but you know that some of those people in NY don't care... look how long Charlie Rangel has been in office and is still in office even after his tax issues.

Anthony Weiner Accused Of Engaging In New Sex Chats Using 'Carlos Danger' Handle (UPDATED)

Anthony Weiner is being accused of exchanging multiple sexts with a 22-year-old woman a little over a year after the former congressman was forced to resign from a sexting scandal in June 2011.

The alleged conversations were posted on the nightlife site "The Dirty" on Monday, which claims to be in contact with the unidentified woman.

According to the site, Weiner used the handle "Carlos Danger" when talking to the woman:

I’ve been in contact with a young female girl who wishes to remain Anonymous. She was lured by Anthony Weiner post scandal via Facebook. They had a relationship for 6 months and she believed they were in love. Anthony Weiner like a true sex predator promised Anonymous many things like a job at Politico and a condo in Chicago (a place they could meet up and have sex). The relationship consisted of Anthony Weiner and Anonymous sending sexually explicit pictures of each other and having sexual conversations via phone.

Weiner also allegedly offered to help her get featured on a Politico panel, if she did him a "solid" and "hard delete" all of their correspondence.

"The Dirty's" founder Nik Richie said he has a "penis image" Weiner allegedly sent and would be publishing it soon.

Both NYMag and Buzzfeed have reached out to Weiner's campaign. As of this time, no word from his camp.

If true, the sex chats could potentially damage Weiner's ambitions of becoming the next New York City mayor.

Opponents have pointed to the 2011 scandal to question his integrity and qualifications as mayor.

UPDATE: Weiner has released a statement responding to the allegations, characterizing them as partially true.

Read the statement below, via New York Magazine:

"I said that other texts and photos were likely to come out, and today they have. As I have said in the past, these things that I did were wrong and hurtful to my wife and caused us to go through challenges in our marriage that extended past my resignation from Congress. While some things that have been posted today are true and some are not, there is no question that what I did was wrong. This behavior is behind me. I've apologized to Huma and am grateful that she has worked through these issues with me and for her forgiveness. I want to again say that I am very sorry to anyone who was on the receiving end of these messages and the disruption that this has caused. As my wife and I have said, we are focused on moving forward."

This guy Weiner is the biggest sexist, crook, and farce in public politics there ever was. And now, he repeats the same behavior, over and over, after previously caught, then resigned the Congress, and now seeks office for NYC Mayor? Really? Whether this run actually pans out, and how or why the NYC public would want him, is just crazy imho. Weird society we now live in for damn sure!

[Dave]

Up to this point, he's been leading in the polls as far as the Mayor's race is going... I wouldn't be surprised if he still wins... way to many idiots in NYC that will vote for him just because they know the name. It would be nice if the people of NYC would think and decide not to put someone in office that they already know is corrupt but I'm not going to hold my breath for that to happen.

[XLFD]

I think you misread and paraphrased that headline, Dave, they say he's making a good showing of his pole.  In the generator, my name is Leandro Menace if I put in my actual name, and Guillermo Furtive when I type in X-LFD.

And by the way, my sexting name is:

Gilberto Evil

Haha

It seems that Weiner's shot at mayor of NYC is going limp. In the newest poll regarding the NYC mayor's race, Weiner is down to 10% support. A few weeks ago just after his admitting that he had continued his kinky habit his support went from 26% to 16% then. I think there is some hope for the people of NYC that they are actually able not just go for name recognition and actually vote on the candidates talents.

Former congressman Anthony Weiner continues to fade in the New York mayoral race, according to a new poll by the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.

The new poll released Tuesday — four weeks before the mayoral primaries — shows Public Advocate Bill de Blasio leading with 30% of likely voters with City Council Speaker Christine Quinn taking 24% and former comptroller William Thompson at 22%. Weiner has fallen to 10%, down from 16% in the same poll two weeks ago.

In mid-July, Weiner led in the Quinnipiac poll, but his support collapsed after he acknowledged that he had continued sending lewd messages to women online even after he had quit Congress over a sexting scandal.

Weiner has also lost significant support among black voters, who provided his biggest block of support in the wake of the revelations. In a poll at the end of July, Weiner still had the support of 24% of black voters. In Monday's poll, only 8% of black voters backed Weiner. Quinnipiac's new poll shows 39% of black voters now support Thompson, who is the only African-American candidate in the race.
