Finally: Weiner to Resign

The New York Times is reporting Rep. Anthony Weiner, after speaking with his wife about his bad behavior, will resign:

Representative Anthony D. Weiner has told friends that he plans to resign his seat after coming under growing pressure from his Democratic colleagues to leave the House in the wake of revelations of his lewd online exchanges with women, said a person told of Mr. Weiner’s plans.

The news comes as Democratic leaders prepared to hold a meeting on Thursday to discuss whether to strip the 46-year-old Congressman of his committee assignments, a blow which would severely damage his effectiveness.

Mr. Weiner, a Democrat, came to the conclusion that he could no longer serve after having long discussions with his wife,  Huma Abedin, when she returned home on Tuesday after traveling abroad with her boss, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.

National Journal is reporting Weiner informed Democratic leaders, including Nancy Pelosi, about the decision Wednesday night at the White House picnic. He will hold a press conference today at 2 p.m. to make the official announcement.
