Perhaps the most striking part of Anthony Weiner’s news conference Tuesday was that he wasn’t the only one who spoke. Weiner’s wife, Huma Abedin, vouched for her husband in no uncertain terms, after he acknowledged that he engaged in sexually explicit online conversations even after resigning from Congress.
Turns out Abedin’s support did virtually nothing to help or hurt Weiner’s chances in the New York City mayor’s race, according to one survey.
A WNBC/Marist/Wall Street Journal poll released Thursday shows that three of four New York City Democrats (73 percent) said Abedin’s support makes no difference in how much they trust Weiner as a mayoral candidate. And nearly as many Democrats said her support makes it less likely (12 percent) they will trust him as said it makes them more likely (15 percent) to trust him as a candidate.
The poll does not measure who did or did not watch the news conference, which was widely covered in local and national media. And the survey was conducted over just one day (Wednesday), a less-than-ideal sampling period.
It’s also possible that Abedin’s appearance may function like an endorsement. People say they are not affected by them, but sometimes the effect is subconscious, or people don’t want to admit it.
Time will tell what the ultimate effect is on Weiner’s image. But the early data show that the most unexpected part of Weiner’s news conference may also be the least consequential..

Sydney Leathers, the woman identified as Anthony Weiner's new online mistress, is a heavily tattooed, high school dropout hell-bent on becoming famous — and her mother is no fan of the mayoral candidate.
'I have nothing to say except God help New York if he gets to be mayor. You can print that,' Laura Leathers told the Daily News at her home in Allendale, Ill.
Her starry-eyed daughter Sydney, 23, reached out to Weiner on Facebook right after he quit Congress in June 2011 — and ended up in an Internet affair that involved kinky messaging, steamy phone sex and mutual declarations of love.
Sydney Leathers, who lives in sleepy Princeton, Ind. — one mouse click and 850 miles away from Weiner — was in hiding Wednesday, after she was outed by the website The Dirty as Weiner's latest sexting partner.Using the name 'Carlos Danger,' Weiner carried on with her for several months, beginning in July 2012, more than a year after he resigned from Congress for similar behavior. Weiner on Tuesday admitted to the relationship, but said it had ended and that he had — once again — finally put his sexting ways behind him.
On Wednesday, his campaign said it wasn't Weiner's only new virtual liaison. Weiner chatted up multiple women online after leaving Congress, his spokeswoman said. It was not immediately clear how many women were involved and how Weiner interacted with them.

July 25, 2013 - The woman at the center of Anthony Weiner's latest sexting scandal is speaking out today for the first time, in an interview with Inside Edition. Sydney Leathers, a 23-year-old Democrat from Indiana, said she was 'shocked' that he 'would be so foolish as to do the same thing all over again.' 'He was making these campaign promises that he'd totally changed,' Leathers said of his public persona, 'that he was a better man now and had learned from his mistakes, and I am proof that that is not true.'
Asked if she felt at the time they were messaging that she 'loved' Weiner, she replied, 'maybe not loved, but I definitely cared about him.' After she talked to the former congressman on the phone for the last this past April, he texted her with a request to 'hard delete all of our chats' ahead of his mayoral campaign announcement. She said Weiner was 'absolutely' trying to deceive New York voters about his behavior.

'A new Weiner sex scandal brewing? Or is it a pre-election smear job? (UPDATE: Weiner Owns up to Online Dalliances!)'
UPDATE: Anthony Weiner is coming clean again....now that his online dalliances have officially been publicized.
Weiner claims that some of the allegations are true and some are not.
As reported by The Dirty, Weiner sent a photograph of his manhood to a female he was engaging online.
Upon entering the 2013 NYC mayoral campaign, Weiner warned New Yorkers that more dirt of the same nature was forthcoming. See: Anthony Weiner Vaguely Responds to New Illicit Message Revelations...
'Anthony Weiner Press Conference -- Did Weiner out himself?'
Some conference. If the United States should ever go Shariah (God forbid), I have no doubt that Weiner will be the first casualty of stoning or an honor killing at the hands of his wife and family.
In follow up to my earlier post entitled, A new Weiner sex scandal brewing? Or is it a pre-election smear job? (UPDATE: Weiner Owns up to Online Dalliances!), am I the only one who thinks that the unfurling of Weiner's latest sexting scandal was too easy.
Suspicious from the beginning, at first I thought that it might have been a smear job until I recalled Weiner warning New Yorkers a few weeks back additional reports would likely surface reference his continued indiscretions.

Sydney Leathers, a 23-year-old woman who says she exchanged lewd text messages with New York City mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner, told Inside Edition's Jim Moret that she wants to apologize to Huma Abedin, Weiner's wife.
'I just feel very, very sorry for my part and the pain that she obviously feels,' the self-described 'political junkie' said, through tears.
Abedin offered her support for Weiner Tuesday, admitting their relationship has had 'its ups and its downs' but concluding, 'I love him, I have forgiven him, I believe in him and, as we have said since the beginning, we are moving forward.'
Leathers also said that Weiner had told her he loved her, and that she thought Weiner was jealous when other men posted comments on her Facebook photos.
Weiner stated Tuesday that only some allegations against him are true, but would not elaborate.
On Thursday, he admitting to engaging online with six to 10 women, including three after resigning from Congress.
In light of recent revelations, Weiner's polling numbers have plummeted.

The one thing perhaps more surprising than New York mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner's admission that his sexting continued past his 2011 resignation from Congress? The fact that his wife, long-time Hilary Clinton aide Huma Abedin, would stand by his side.
'Anthony has made some horrible mistakes, both before he resigned from Congress and after,' Abedin said at a press conference Tuesday. 'But I do strongly believe that that is between us and our marriage. We discussed all of this before Anthony decided to run for mayor.'
She added, 'I love him, I have forgiven him, I believe in him, and as we have said from the beginning, we are moving forward.'
Abedin -- who penned a longer defense of her husband for Harper's Bazaar prior to this latest revelation -- is hardly the first political wife forced to decide if she would stand by her husband in the wake of a sex scandal.
