Why the rush?

Ezra Klein raises a good point: "For the record, if I were married to Anthony Weiner, I’d divorce him ... But my hesitation in calling for Weiner’s resignation is simple enough: I didn’t elect the guy. And I don’t see any reason why the people who did elect him shouldn’t have the opportunity to consider his behavior, consider his job performance over the next year and change, and then decide whether to return him to office. ... What urgency is there to act now, at the height of his and our humiliation and embarrassment over this episode, rather than in the next election?"
