The watchdogs policing the GOP’s “war on women” seem to have taken a “leading from behind” approach to calling for the resignation of San Diego Mayor Bob Filner, a Democrat. Filner announced today that he wouldn’t be resigning, despite sexual harassment accusations from seven women and the (eventual) loss of support of the San Diego Democratic Party’s central committee.
Glad 2hear #SanDiego DemCentralComm stepped up & called on @BobFilnerMayor to resign.

So many Democrat sex scandals, so little time to weigh in on all of them.
@RBPundit @DWStweets @SandraFluke also remains silent on Weiner's #WaronWomen.

why isn't Sandra Fluke taking out her "war on women" mantra against the vile Anthony Weiner? where is Gloria Allred? #hypocrisy

Left/Feminists: You can be a Huma, or a Rachael Jental, or a Sandra Fluke… take your pick of these awesome role models. #caring

Correction, 11:31 p.m. ET:
The original version of this post incorrectly implied that Fluke hadn’t weighed in on this matter until tonight. Shortly after our post appeared, Fluke set the record straight:
.@TwitchyTeam fact check much? I wrote resolution 4 our @ca_dem caucus & spoke on why @BobFilnerMayor should resign. https://t.co/d0NYerl3MU
