As
the media ties to push Weiner out the mayoral campaign, the real race
has been put on hold. With the high ratings and interest in the Weiner
Huma Realty Show - leads not only local but also national news one
wonders if the media really wants the former congressman to pull out.
The city residents are being robbed with finding out what the candidates
would do to solve the pressing problems of the day. The candidates are
winning also. They do not have to make any promises or commitments to
the public. All that is left for Weiner to do is to tell New Yorkers to
open their windows and shout out that "I Am As Mad As Hell That the Middle Class Is Being Pushed Out of the City, And I Am Not Going To Take It Any More."Goldwater Told Nixon It is All Over

“Shame on us,” Cuomo said, before aides contended the governor was only jesting. Now the governor needs to speak again, seriously and with the full moral authority he wields both among the Democrats and among many New Yorkers. He needs to speed the Weiner debacle to an end with a declaration that the Democratic field has far better to offer.
Even Weiner's pals want him to drop out of the race:
'He's turned the election into a freak show'(NYP) Today’s tabloid covers don’t contain any welcome news for former Congressman Anthony Weiner or his mayoral campaign–even amNewYork gave him a red clown nose. But the hardest hitting, unsurprisingly, was the New York Post, which went after him for not lasting long enough during phone sex and added three more women to his sexting total, now placing it at thirteen.

Mayor's Race Interrupted For Weiner Huma Realty Show
It is Not A Circus. What is going on now in the mayor's race is undemocratic. New Yorkers are not being allow to choose a candidate who will be their next mayor based on the merits. The media has turned the race into a realty show. The Weiner Spitzer uproar has been manufactured by their opponents, their opponents’ surrogates and the special interests that have cast their lots in favor of one of these rivals, who are now petrified that they may have bet wrong and lose control of the city's government.
Where is the Outrage to sexual harassment, member item, scandal cover-ups, Corrupt Pols Only Weiner?
Special Interests Permanent Government Does Not Care About Pols and Lobbyist that Rob NY As Long As They Are Allow To Have Control And Rob NY Also
Just as disingenuous as the moaning about the shame Spitzer and Weiner’s candidacies have brought upon New York City politics—as if our current elected officials were held up as paragons of virtue—is the criticism that Spitzer’s self-funded bid is undemocratic. We have seen time and again that when it is in the self-interest of New York politicians to turn a blind eye to sexual harassment, member item abuse, scandal cover-ups and outright corruption, the same permanent government members who have now through their control and ownership of the city media destroyed the mayor's race. Just because two candidates may get elected that they cannot control, Weiner and Spitzer.

NY Times Editorial
Mr. Weiner and the Elusive Truth
At some point, the full story of Anthony Weiner and his sexual
relationships and texting habits will finally be told. In the meantime,
the serially evasive Mr. Weiner should take his marital troubles and
personal compulsions out of the public eye, away from cameras, off the
Web and out of the race for mayor of New York City.
When the first texts were revealed two years ago, Mr. Weiner lied about
it, saying he had been the victim of hackers. Then he owned up,
tearfully abandoned his office and retreated into private life. Then he
was back, telling the world that therapy and his wife’s forgiveness had
turned him around and that he was ready to begin a new chapter. That
turned out to be the mayor’s race, which he entered in May.
The timing here matters, as it would for any politician who violates the
public’s trust and then asks to have it back. Things are different now,
he insists. “This behavior is behind me,” he said again on Tuesday. He
suggested that people should have known that his sexting was an
unresolved problem well into 2012.
That’s ridiculous and speaks to a familiar but repellent pattern of
misleading and evasion. It’s up to Mr. Weiner if he wants to keep
running, to count on voters to forgive and forget and hand him the keys
to City Hall. But he has already disqualified himself.
It’s difficult not to feel for Ms. Abedin. The couple deserved privacy
as they worked through their problems — and they had it, until they
re-emerged in public life and Mr. Weiner decided he was a good fit to
run New York City. Mr. Weiner and Ms. Abedin have been saying that his
sexual behavior is not the public’s business. Well, it isn’t, until they
make it our business by plunging into a political campaign.
Mr. Weiner says he is staying in the mayoral race. To those who know his
arrogance and have grown tired of the tawdry saga he has dragged the
city into, this is not surprising.
Why Weiner must go: the Daily News editorial
The public Weiner(NYP) "Last August, she was the focus of what People magazine described as the couple’s first joint interview since his resignation from Congress. Under a family photo with their new baby, she assured readers that “Anthony has spent every day since [the scandal] trying to be the best dad and husband he can be.” That appeared at a time when Anthony was apparently sending out the explicit messages we are reading about today. Maybe the couple didn’t outright lie, but they didn’t tell the full truth, either."
