With Weiner out of the way, the field is wide open to elect a perfect Democrat
A super-dooper neato candidate that's the ultimate fall-in-love choice of every voter.


Am I right?


Who's with me?

2. If a Republican wins the special election
I hope Pelosi and Schulz choke on their self righteous bile.

3. No way, no how, never will a Republican win Weiner's seat.
NYC is NOT Massachusetts.

4. you don't know that district.
In 2010, the Republicans set up a token candidate, who nonetheless got 40% in the election. It is a conservative white area of Brooklyn, and is ripe for a GOP takeover.

5. There may be no seat to fight over
Since NY is losing at least one congressional seat.

It may just be cannibalized and disappear altogether.

7. I am and I've got the perfect candidate.
Anthony Weiner.

I'm with Olbermann on this one. Assuming he broke no laws and wins the election he's inoculated.

If his constituents give him a vote of confidence in the special election anyone continuing to flog this story will just make themselves look foolish.

8. That's an intriguing prospect
That would be the best outcome from this sordid media circus.

I hope you're right.
