Comparing SGW and Anthony Weiner

Post by _keithb »

I just thought that I would make some interesting comparisons between the two people:

1. Both parties have allegedly posted materials online that some members of their constituencies would deem inappropriate (erotica and sexy Twitter pics respectively).

2. Both men may have allegedly tried and failed to "distract" people from the fact they posted this material (through a DCMA notice and a denial in the media respectively).

3. Both attempts at alleged distraction seem to have failed and ended up creating unwanted attention (on the MDD board and in the media respectively).

4. Both men have arguably strange faces (needs no explanation).

5. The constituencies of both men may be moving to distance themselves from the actions of SGW and/or Anthony Weiner (on the MDB and politically respectively).

Do any other comparisons come to mind between the two men?

Both had motivated enemies from another camp who did not hesitate to dig into their lives and parade the unsavory goodies they found there.

Both made poor attempts at obfuscation
