Democrats are shunning Anthony Weiner. He’s become a laughing stock. Even his internet paramours have turned on him. But if you think it couldn’t get any worse for the New York Democrat, think again.
The Huffington Post tells the terrifying tale:
Rep. Anthony Weiner has lost nearly all support in Congress, sources told The Huffington Post, but the embattled New York Democrat has an even tougher audience yet to face: He has to explain himself to Hillary Clinton, the formidable secretary of state he has come to regard as his honorary mother-in-law, people who know the Clintons and Weiner said.
“It scares me, and I’m nowhere near Weiner,” said one Clinton-world insider. “I get nervous even thinking about it.”
Weiner’s elegant — and reportedly pregnant — wife, Huma Abedin, is beloved by the former first lady, who has kept Abedin as an aide for 15 years. Hillary Clinton even described her as a second daughter when Weiner and Abedin married last July.
In order to zig just when you thought we were going to zag, here’s our take on this story:
It’s telling – very telling – that Weiner is more afraid of Hillary Clinton than he is of the President. Unfortunately, that’s not unusual, because it appears that no one is afraid of Barack Obama. Especially our enemies.
No fear, no respect. The United States of America, 2011.
Unprecedented!
