you said the other day it s up to the caucus. no. i said the caucus may have something to say about this. because the last time, a few years ago, we had a similar issue, wasn t exactly this hellacious, but a very serious issue. the caucus acted. there are certain thing as caucus can do. remember, every member of congress has two sets of constituents, get elected from your congressional district is one thing, but you also have constituents who vote for you up here with the caucus or if you are a republican with the conference. and these people have votes on your future as well. so i think that his members or his constituents in the district may be siding with him to the tune of the 57%, i heard. the fact of the matter is he s got constituents up here called the democratic caucus, and they also can vote on his future as well. the great add many poul, re-elected by constituency. to that happen down the road? you ask him to leave. leaves but gets re-elected? absolutely that s true,
continuing to grow, creating jobs and obviously ensuring the safety and security of the american people s. it something would you look forward to if weiner got back on the stage, on a show like this all the time, all the time being the congressman from new york, with really the most out there democrat on big issues like the economy and medicare? would that make you comfortable? i don t think so. i believe you can t stop him. no. we can t. but i think that the leader of our caucus determines who can and will speak forrous caucus. i think our caucus collectively can make those determinations. if my caucus were ever to ask plea not to speak on an issue, i would certainly not speak on that issue. so, no, we can t stop anybody from saying of what they want to say, but we certainly can determine whether or not they ll speak on behalf of the caucus. you know, i late to break it

think all of this four, five membership, three or four members tomorrow, calling for resignations or what have you, whatever, is not good. it s not good for us. here, in congress, it s not good for the country. we ought to get this behind us so we can get back to trying to do what is necessary to get our economic house in order so we can build this country to what it ought to be. do you believe the democratic caucus or either party caucus has it with its rights to ask this member to leave? i don t know that. you said the other day it s up to the caucus. no. i said the caucus may have something to say about this. because the last time, a few years ago, we had a similar issue, wasn t exactly this hellacious, but a very serious issue. the caucus acted. there are certain thing as caucus can do. remember, every member of congress has two sets of
