You know who just had a really good week? Me neither, but it definitely wasn’t Anthony Weiner. The other shoe has finally dropped — he’s really into that — with several more shoes likely to fall at any time. America’s second-favorite dong-dangling Democrat is running out of friends, and fast.
But there’s one man he can count on. A man who knows a thing or two about coming back from a scandal. It’s no big secret: You just need to be say things that the Democrats want to hear!
Bob Cusack at The Hill reports:
Former Washington, D.C. Mayor Marion Barry said Anthony Weiner is a “good Democrat” who should be talking more about his accomplishments in Congress.
In an interview Saturday night on Geraldo Rivera’s show on Fox News, Barry said, “One bit of advice to the congressman: I’d stop talking so much about now and start talking about what you did for seven terms while he was in the Congress. He’s a good Democrat.”
“Good” and “Democrat” go together like peanut butter and motor oil. Weiner is a typical Democrat, I’ll give him that much.
Other than his staunch supporter Marion Barry, Weiner isn’t getting too much support. Just check out this turncoat:
.@TheDemocrats? Yes. RT @davidaxelrod Is the fact that the Anthony Wiener circus continues to lead the news an embarrassment to HIM…or US?

And here’s Axelrod talking to scofflaw gun criminal David Gregory on Meet the Press yesterday, slipping the dagger right between his “friend’s” ribs:
Et tu, douche? This just convinces me even more that Weiner should stay in the race as long as he possibly can.
We want Weiner!
We want Weiner!
We want Weiner!
We want Weiner!
Everybody!
Update: Andrew Klavan on The Sad Fate of Democrat Women. “The Kennedys, the Clintons, the Weiners, the Spitzers — maybe they have a natural home in a party that is always thinking of ways to transform female sexuality into a meaningless mechanism, and devising ways to fund that transformation with other people’s money.”
Update: Thought it couldn’t get any better? Bill and Hillary Clinton are “livid” at comparisons to Weiner’s sexcapades and Huma’s forgiveness. Tee-hee!
Update: Thomas Lifson at American Thinker wonders what’ll happen if Huma and Hillary aren’t BFFs anymore. “That cushy arrangement where Huma got a consulting six figure contract from the State Department while at home with her new baby, the simultaneous and much larger consulting contract from a big money outfit, the access to a 3 million dollar apartment in Manhattan – why, a cornucopia of good things happen when the Clintons are promoting you! But what if they really turn on you?” I can’t wait to find out!
