After days of lying, New York Rep. Anthony Weiner finally ‘fessed up to sending sexually-explicit photos of himself and engaging in inappropriate online conversations with at least six young women – over several years. Speaking of the now-infamous bulging-boxers shot that started the saga, Weiner confessed, “That picture was of me, and I sent it.” But despite the teary apology Wiener said he has no intention of stepping down. Now, Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi is calling for an ethics committee investigation into whether Weiner broke any House rules. Will Weiner lose his congressional seat over this scandal? Given the very public deception, should he? Can Weiner regain credibility after having admitted he lied? Would it have made any difference with voters, if he’d been more upfront about his personal indiscretions from the beginning?
