Interesting: he knew he was being cyberstalked by these conservatives, as witness the fact that he broke off contact with females when they noticed it. But he still continued his behavior. This either bespeaks such a crazy level of narcissism that he thought he could never get caught, or was willfully self-destructive, courting discovery and ruin.

So its almost as if the NY Times thinks its bad for people to watch what politicians do on the internet

If Einer wanted to couldnt he have joined Mr Wolfe’s group under an assumed name?
If Weiner knew anything about the group it seems he liked playing Russian Roulette

Weiner explained self to Bill Clinton

Rep. Anthony Weiner explained himself and apologized for his conduct to Bill Clinton, who officiated his wedding to wife Huma Abedin, sources familiar with the call said.

Weiner made the call within the past 48 hours. It took place following his emotional press conference Monday in New York City, where he admitted that he had posted a lewd photo of himself to Twitter 10 days earlier, the sources said.

It wasn’t immediately clear what was said on the call, but sources said that the Clintons - who are deeply loyal to Abedin - are distressed by the “sexting” scandal that Weiner immersed his wife in.

A senior Democratic aide said Pelosi’s request “builds on the pressure on him to go.” Separately, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) was asked what advice he would give Weiner. “Call somebody else,” Reid replied.

Weiner’s stumble came just as Democrats were beginning to feel that they were regaining their footing after November’s GOP landslide.

“Anyone who is getting in the way of Democrats taking back the majority will be thrown overboard. There is no tolerance for this anymore — especially from Pelosi,” said a Democratic strategist with close ties to House leadership.

Political pressure is a key factor in determining whether a politician will muddle through a scandal or be forced out, said crisis management consultant Eric Dezenhall. Though many politicians think they can talk their way out of a scandal, public apologies at this point do little, he said.

The key for Weiner to hold onto his seat will be his ability to work the “inside game,” Dezenhall said. “His focus now should be his wife, his Democratic colleagues and his constituents.”

Clintons ‘Deeply Unhappy’ With Weiner

One of Mr. Weiner’s most emotional apologies was delivered to former President Bill Clinton[...] The Clintons are deeply unhappy about the situation and with Mr. Weiner, people who had been told of their thinking said. Mr. Clinton declined to comment.

In fact, Weiner is fast running out out friends not just in Congress (where he didn’t have many to begin with), but in his home city, where he was, up until erection night, a front-runner in the upcoming mayoral race. The Times quotes two Weiner raisers—sorry, Weiner fundraisers—who are “dismayed” and “pessimistic”; another, speaking anonymously, was “shocked and furious” because Weiner had, in conversation, proclaimed himself the victim of a “vast right-wing conspiracy.” Just like, heh, the Clintons.

As Democrats and Republicans embrace Twitter and other social media tools as a way to interact with their constituents and woo voters, many have discovered a downside to online communication: cyberstalkers, who track and criticize their every move.

Cyberstalkers or neighborhood watch??? Seems like Weiner was the stalker / perv of the electronic neighborhood.

WAY TO GO you young conservatives. It isn’t like you are detectives, how hard is it you also have Twitter (no wonder so many Dems are on it - twits all) or Facebook and can just watch what the total idiot Weiner was doing?

Isn’t like they were spying or tapping his phone, etc. This dumb horny liberal was sending this stuff out ON HIS OWN. It was all over the world. How is Brietbart to blame?

But the left always wants to blame those judging. TO HELL WITH YOU. Do use a favor and abort yourself and slow down population growth you pitiful excuses for human beings.

It’s a good thing Dan Rather was so lackidaisical about Bush’s military record.....otherwise he might’ve fallen for a “fake but accurate” forgery.

Oh yeah, deep investigation is good when liberals fake it, but bad when conservatives prove it.

I forgot.

My bad.

“But even by the standards of modern politics, Dan Wolfe and other members of the #bornfreecrew watched Mr. Weiner’s account with particular ferocity, and a sharp focus on his interactions with women...”

After reading it through, my take away from this article, the NY Slimes is severely urinated the group outed their favorite congressional “member.”

...same Twitter user who discovered the photograph that Mr. Weiner took of himself and sent to Ms. Cordova. He shared it with his followers and the conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart, who made it public the next day.

They can't get simple facts right. Breitbart didn't make the photo public - Weiner did! He tweeted it on his public twitter stream, which is the only reason it was noticed by Dan Wolfe in the first place. If it had been a private message, nobody else could have seen it.

The "Paper of Record" bemoans the fact that creepy, perverted behavior may not go unnoticed on social media sites such as Twitter.

Perhaps the NYTs is simply embarrassed they missed what a handful of conservative 'nobodies' found and monitored so easily.
