Does it help that we now have a cleaner Weiner?

Asked by ETpro (34605points) June 6th, 2011

Congressman Anthony Weiner, D. New York; held a press conference today and came clean about the errant Twitter post. It was not the work of a hacker, but a keyboard error on his part. He had meant to email it to the woman at the center of the controversy, but inadvertently posted it on Twitter instead. He erased it himself as soon as he realized his error, but it was too late. And yes, it was a picture he had taken of himself. Further, this incident isn’t the limit of his online dalliances. But he swears that all the relationships were virtual only—that he never met or even intended to meet any of the individuals involved.

Does that satisfy you? What standard of behavior do you think we should hold public officials to?
