Should Weiner Drop Out? Carroll Gardens Says Hell Yes

After getting caught in another 'sexting' scandal, calls for Anthony Weiner to drop out of the NYC mayoral race have increased.

It didn't take long for Anthony Weiner to run into trouble during his New York City Mayoral campaign.

Just over two years after he resigned from the House after getting caught in a 'sexting' scandal, Weiner admitted to sending more lewd pictures and messages after they recently surfaced.

Now, pressure is mounting from everywhere for Weiner to drop out of the race. Locals took to the Carroll Gardens Patch Facebook page to speak out.

Lois Berseth said, "What got me most about the press conference was when Huma said that he had made some horrible mistakes but that it was between them and their marriage - and that it had nothing to do with the public. That's pathetic!"

Martha Heller agreed, "He looked like a pathetic puppy with his tail between his legs with only his master protecting him from being swatted for peeing on the floor! Seriously!!! Made me really want to swat some sense into both of them!!"

Michael Caiafa added, "he should just drop now,, but the rest of pack is boring bunch. sex sells"
