Thom Hartmann: As long as Senator David Vitter, a client of the DC Madame - keeps his job - then Republicans should shut up on Anthony Weiner

In an interview with the New York Post - thoroughly embarrassed New York Congressman Anthony Weiner again confirmed that he is NOT resigning over the Twitter lewd photo scandal - and a new poll out in his Congressional district shows his constituents support him.

The new Marist poll released yesterday revealed 56% of voters think Weiner should stay in office - while only 33% think he should go. So if it's up to the constituents - as Republicans argue when one of their guys steps in a sex scandal - then the constituents have decided they want to keep Weiner as their Congressman.

And as long as Senator David Vitter - who was a client of the DC Madame - keeps his job - then Republicans should probably keep their mouths shut about Anthony Weiner.
