apparently, anthony weiner was raised in 1920s new york. he talks about the g.i. bill, he talks about being nickel and dimed. he's going for one piece of his constituency. >> here's the thing. i'm going to get in trouble for saying this, i'm going to say it anyway. i think a lot of anthony weiner's politics i don't like, he voted for the iraq war, his politics on israel i don't like. i am not in line with anthony weiner's politics, but i think when you look at the levels of scandal there are, i think the guy got a raw deal. what he did was creepy or weird or whatever, however you want to clarify it, if it was my friend who told me they were doing this while married, i would like be, get it together, this is messed up, i'm really mad at you, but in terms of public life, i think there's this crazy mismatch. i think it's because of new york, because she's close to the clintons, because of the name, but there's a complete -- fine, argue against it. i think there's a total mismatch between the level of infraction and level of scandal. >> we've seen a tidal wave of actu

now we know that anthony weiner is the only congressman who had no mistress, many tried to support anthonyr for as long as they could. he lost me when he said it was junction a prank because--it was just a prank because of his last name. you do not abuse the goofy name card with a fugalsang. oh, we had to show that. it's like an abercrombie and fitch bag. he lost all sport. americans don't like junk scandals but they don't want to see your junk. congressman weiner's he is rig face speech caused so mass orgasms across fox news the cleanup cost more than the gulf. this actually, fact, the same week that anthony weiner quit congress rick san for yum announced his candidacy for president. we got to see headlines of weiner pulls out santorum running. by the way liberals who can't admit this was fun are like conservatives who can't admit that andrew breitbart was evil. in fairness, the guy did good stuff. he created the bipartisan middle class caucus. he got an a-rating on middle class issues. did he advocate for the national healthcare act which would have extended medicare to every. we would h

considered news until the candidate seeking interns was the man new york post calls the sexting king, anthony weinerhat was enough for the new york post to rewrite a nothing story into a front page story. and in another weiner item in the new york post today, former mayor and self proclaimed hero of 9/11 rudy giuliani said this about anthony weiner. i wasn't stunned when he got in trouble. i know him for years and always knew something was wrong with him. you see, guilliani was a cop, not a cop exactly, a u.s. attorney, federal prosecutor, worked with cops, fbi agents mostly. he wants you to think he has that cop mythical power to look at someone and know something is wrong with him. guilliani didn't have that power when he first looked deeply into the eyes of bernie carrick who entered guilliani's world as chauffeur. it was love at first sight. he judged the chauffeur to be greater than his resume which included being a high school dropout. guilliani using his great skill as judge of character had other candidates that were the corrections commissioner, he took that job which meant taking advantage

for starters his name is anthony weiner. he was brash and ambitious and had made enemies on both sides of the isle. there were photos. he was married at the time, and his wife who happened to be an incredibly compelling figure in her own right. oh, and his wife was pregnant at the time. and again because it cannot be overemphasized, his last name is weiner. folks at talking points memo were saying whether by coincident or on purpose it had the -- if the announcement had been made today, quote, the wein weiner's campaign won't say whether they purposely left the tabs in the dark, a night editor said they were certain his timing was designed to shaft them. that's exactly what he did. the daily news still could not resist going with the headline weiner's all in online. but now with or without the dirty puns, two years after he resigned amid questions about his anatomy from a producer of howard stern's radio show, he's trying to recreate his political career through a post scandal second act. >> i made some big mistakes, and i k

sanford did it in carolina and so does anthony weiner.he would not be able to live with himself if he didn't run, but i don't think it's going to have a serious oimpact on the outcome of the mayor-race. >> jimy williams, you're wiener's former colleague, wiener is saying more women could some forward with the kind of sexually suggestive e-mails and pictures that forced him to resign two years ago. is this something where wiener knows he's got to go out and get this over with, go out and deal with all of this if he ever wants a political come back is this just the soft test of getting over the ugliness of what it means to run and then it can actually run for something that it won't be a big deal? >> whether he does this so that he can set himself back up running for his old seat or for a new york based seat. i can tell you anybody who's studied anthony weiner for any period of time in politics here or back in new york understands that it's all about ego. he loves the camera, he loves the ego, heç loves the power tp that comes behind this

the one thing that anthony weiner has going for him is he's got an electric presence. there are very few people in american politics who have this particular gene. they might argue that marco rubio or chris christie has it as well. they're in the room, they have it. that's what allows them to come into this race despied all the bangage. >> he certainly doesn't need to beg for press attention, that's for sure. >>> our question for you today, does anthony weiner deserve a second chance? head over to my facebook page or head to my twitter page. get your thoughts in. >>> still ahead, what governor chris christie think about the newly appointed. >>> tornadoes expected today. oklahoma is trying to rebuild from last week's deadly twisters. vo: traveling you definitely end up meeting a lot more people but a friend under water is something completely different. i met a turtle friend today so, you don't get that very often. it seemed like it was more than happy to have us in his home. so beautiful. avo: more travel. more options. more personal. whatever you're looking for expedi
