Werner did something stupid, it is up to the voters to decide whether to forgive or not.
I would vote for him based on ideology, as far as his poor judgement, I would not vote for him even if I agreed with his politics.
This is how I see it....
The man was true to his ideology and always seemed to be truly for his constituents.
As for the sexting thing....stupid, immature, foolish...especially for a man in the publics eye.
As for the lying about it...typical reaction....almost all would have lied. I do not hold it against him.
However...what separates him from others?
He BLAMED others for it....he identified his "political opponents" as those committing a felony and hacking into his account....knowing full well that they didn't.
To me?
He should not be forgiven for it. That was where he crossed the line between being human and being evil.
That in itself is reason he should not be PERMITTED to run.
The man publicly blamed others for something they didn't do in an effort to protect his personal interests.
And he is to be trusted with New York City?
