. >> reporter: well, bob filner spent 20 years in congress and many fear this is just the tip of the iceberg. the allegations include unwanted kissing, groping, lewd comments, sexual harassment, crude and inappropriate behavior for any man, let alone a mayor. >> we will all fail women of our city if we ask them to continue to meet with this man to seek the leadership of one who will continue to harass and grope them, try and stick their tongue down their throat, grab their breasts, one who is tragically, bob filner is tragically unsafe for any woman to approach. >> publicly this long time liberal democrat claims to support women's rights. yet already three female staffers have resigned, two aides quit. his fiance broke up with him

now with bob filner under control, nothing is guaranteed. it's turned out way differently than anyone has expected. no charges have been filed yet, no lawsuits have been filed yet, but check your watch every minute or so for updates on that. it started at the end of last week, when a former democratic city council woman, an ally of bob filner came out publicly to say, she had supported the mayor in the past, she had sent a letter to the mayor asking for his resignation. i cannot describe how anguishing it is to ask that you vacate this office, and then she held a news conference. >> when i received credible firsthand evidence of more than one woman being sexually harassed, i could not act. i believe what they have told me, and they need to know that they are not alone. >> former counselor proceeded to say it was one of the hardest decisions she had ever had to make to demand that bob filner resign. that same day he responded apologizing, but not resigning. >> i begin today by apologizing to you. i have diminished the office to which you have

the sex scandal involving mayor bob filner. happening at the same time, you have anthony weiner, candidate for new york city mayor. he's grappling with his own accusations of sexually inappropriate behavior. and the message from house democratic leader nancy pelosi to these two men? get a clue. >> let me just say before i leave that let me be very clear. the conduct of some of these people that we're talking about here is reprehensible. it's so disrespectful of women. and what's really stunning about it is they don't even realize it. they don't have a clue. and it is really -- if they're clueless, get a clue. if they need therapy, do it in private. >> cnn's casey wian actually tracked down the san diego mayor for a comment. >> reporter: brooke, the four new women who have come forward with allegations of unwanted sexual advances against mayor bob filner are pillars of the community here in san diego. four more women came forward thursday to accuse san diego mayor bob filner of inappropriate sexual conduct. they include a univer

to that point, bob filner is not new to politics himself. he's a new mayor, but he was a member of congress for several terms. he worked in politics as a senator in minnesota before that. he's not new. i'm not saying he came in scandalous, but i am saying this to-be-continued statement is very strange. to that point of him needing a fixer and/or to be fixed, the tech guy just came out to try to fix the mic. james, what was your take on that? >> absolutely. i think it was a contrite statement, but it was defiant. that fits with his personality. this is a continuing problem for democrats. republicans will make sure he's in the news every day he holds on. you don't go to rehab for two weeks and kind of resign in tandem with that. my hunch is he's going to call it a two-week vacation and come back and try to say that he's fixed. with these sexual harassment lawsuits, these things go on for a very long time. they get very messy. a lot comes out in court beyond the initial allegations. he's certainly going to have a lot of distractions if he tries

bob filner was sexually harassing people, which is illegal. bob filner is the mayor of san diego. at this point, anthony weiner is just a candidate for the democratic nomination for mayor. what's going on in san diego is much more serious. it may not be as great for tabloid fodder, but that is a situation that cuts to the heart of what the people of san diego have in charge of their government already and how they're supposed to go forward with it. he -- you've got to think, when he's saying he's going into therapy for two weeks and there are aides that have to show up in the mornings and in the evenings every day of that therapy to update him on city business, i feel sorry for the people who have to deal with that kind of thing and be there at the clinic with him. >> edward, nia-malika henderson, and michael, i'll talk to you later about miss leathers. >> i wish we could hear that conversation. >> we'll record it and put it on the post show. thanks, guys. >>> right now in egypt, the military is vowing to end sit-ins by supporters of the ousted president by calling them a security

here's a former supporter of mayor bob filner. listen. >> he will oftentimes pull in close to their face and tell them you are wonderful, you are beautiful. i want to kiss you. his goal is to get them out of the way and he says things come on, you know you love me. just give me a kiss. let's go up to my office. no one will know. >> those former filner supporters have not yet decided whether or not to file sexual harassment lawsuits, shep. they will file a formal complaint to the city of san diego. shep? >> shepard: trace, he hasn't lost his job clearly but did he lose his fiancee. >> his former fiancee broke it off last week. she says she knows nothing at all about the sexual harassment allegations but she does know he cheated on her. even texted sexual messages right in front of her. remember, bob filner spent 20 years in congress prior to becoming mayor. he has a the lo of supporters say at least he deserves due process. bob filner told station is he misunderstood but in the end he believes he will be exonerated. listen. >> ther

mayor bob filner announced yesterday he's going into two weeks of intensive therapy to start to address what he calls inappropriate behave. seven women are accusing him of unwanted kissing, groping, other harassment. and one of the alleged victims told poppy harlow about one time when he was a congressman. >> he got up and came over and sat next to me in the booth, pinning me in, and i don't remember because it was such a suspension of time and space in my life, this was so unexpected. that i don't remember if he directly asked for a kiss or tried to kiss me. but it became -- it was very uncomfortable. >> and just ahead, i will talk with a sex psychologist about filner's behavior and what kind of help he'll receive over two weeks' time and if that's enough, that will be coming up. >>> in the meantime, today marks 60 years since the signing of the agreement that ended the korean war and commemorating the thousands killed in the war, president obama told the crowd at the korean war veterans memorial that the country has learned many lessons from 60 years ago. >> korea taught us the perils

those whom the gods would destroy would bless with bob filner. i can't seen say it with a straight face. what is he thinks? it's compulsive. i'm going to say, why is he still in office? >> i'm going to go -- >> eugene robinson, we worked with this guy in washington. i had no idea. i'm sure you had no idea. but why is he still in office out there? >> it's a good question. >> the women aren't safe in city hall. they had to put a restraining order on him. he can't be alone with a woman in the same zip code. >> this is the mayor of one of our major cities who is now forbidden to be alone with a woman. it's just incredible. the whole thing -- first of all, that bob filner is mayor of san diego is pretty incredible. he's a democrat. that's almost unheard of for a long time in that city. the city hall is kind of a republican stronghold. that, i suspect, is one reason why democrats were a bit slow to kind of jump on the obvious band wagon here and ask the question why is this guy still in office? he's warring with the head of the city council, also a dem

this is different from san diego mayor bob filner, who has obligations in office. the senior and most powerful politician in his state tell you in the last 30 minutes that he should resign. that's a very big deal. but those are two different things, but anybody can run for anything, that doesn't mean you're going to win. >> you don't think as a democrat, he's kind of embarrassing? >> as a man, but if you look at men behaving badly, you have a whole list of men behaving badly. you know who this helps? it helps a lot of women who want to run for office. >> a silver lining. >> let me just tell you, furthermore i think it's almost sacrilegious to talk about the pope. but saying that, anthony weiner's need for exhibitionism is such that he wants to run. and i think it's almost like they're seeking redemption by election. because they knew this was going to come out. this was bound to come out and it makes no sense. the fact that you don't say wiener needs to get out of the race, spitzer should get out of the raise. filner should get out of the race. they're not doing it

cenk: all right, we have another sex scandal with mayor bob filner of san diego and some of the charges are insane. we brought in our legal correspondent, robin sax. >> it all started back in december of 2012, mayor bob filner became the san diego mayor. a couple of weeks ago after a press conference given by three women, imploring him to resign as mayor he made this statement. >> i begin today by apologizing to you. i have diminished the office to which you elected me. the charges made at today's news conference are serious. when a friend like donna fry is compelled to call for my resignation, i'm clearly doing something wrong. i have reached into my heart and soul and realized i must have and will change my behavior. as someone who has spent a lifetime fighting for quality for all people, i am embarrassed to admit that i failed to fully respect the women who worked for me and intimidated me and at times intimidated them. it's a good thing that behavior that would have been tolerated in the past is being called out in this generation for what it is inappropriate and wrong. i am also hu

bob filner a mayor, anthony weiner wanting to be a mayor. i guess chris' wife's point -- the blind narcissism here is to me the most striking thing. i was convinced anthony weiner was going to get up on tuesday and say, you know what? i didn't tell you the whole truth. i really need to focus on my family, as has become apparent, and i'm going to get out of this race. running for public office in the media capital of the world, this might not be the best choice for my wife. don't forget my young son. he didn't do that. i just as a father and husband. i find that -- forget political reporter -- i just find that stunning. >> before i get a lot of tweets and all sorts of calls from men, angry that we're not talking about women politicians behaving badly, we haven't found very many examples. >> they don't do it. >> frankly, women in high-profile jobs that are actually risk takers in way in terms of their personal behavior. at least not that we've seen publicly. this is an interview with ronnie froman in san diego talking about a woman with a mili

the rnc has been beating that drum when san diego mayor bob filner become embroiled in his own scandal righting here's the latest news on democrats war on women. the national republican senatorial committee picked up the narrative today running today on twitter soap operas, democrats struggle with their own war on women. they also wrote a blog post saying "democrats have absolutely no answer or strategy to combat their growing problem with women." just to set the fakes straight, in 2012, president obama beat romney among women by a margin of 1 points, a critical part of the party's victory. 66-44, that's a hell of a lead for a party that has a problem with women. the big quell is whether weiner, spitzer and filner could help close the gap. john feehery and nia malik cag host of the new show on background. congratulations on that. let me start with john on that to see if there is an argument to be made here. could you think weiner, do you think weiner is something that will travel? do you think that it travels say to milwaukee or to nebraska or florida or texas where a democrat running

four me women have come forward, sa mayor bob filner tried to g them. all are prominent community members: 2 businesswomen.. a university dean.. even a red navy admiral. if you're keeping score, that brings e total number of filner accu to 7. the mayor refused to answer reporters' questions today. he's also refusing repeated calls to resign. and in new york, anthony we is still running for mayor. even though as vanita nair s us: we've learned that carlos danger, as he liked e called, was sexting a woman named sydney leathers. script:) this is the woman behind the latest "sexting" scandal for weiner, and the san die mayor. let me be very clear. the conduct of some of these pe is reprehensible. it's so disrespectful of women. and what's really stunning is ty don't even realize. they dot even have a clue. it's real, if they're clueless, get a . they need therapy, do it in private. we've all heard the advice: drink lots of water for good health. but kristine water for good health. but kristine johnson shows us: water bottle you tote arounl day -- may not be

this would be san diego mayor bob filner. he's resisting any push to resign even though it seems everyone is telling him you cannot be effective at this point. you need to get out of this. what's your take on this situation? >> it's freak and freakier with these two guys. they just don't know what to do with them. it's got to be a very frustrating things for democrat who last cycle we saw them label republicans as waging a war on women for what akin and murdoch said. in these guys, you've got people doing things, not just saying. so it kind of puts a kink in the democrat armor of the entire women narrative. >> can republicans capitalize on this, or is this risky political territory? >> i think the best thing to do, if it you're a republican, just sit down and watch the show. get some popcorn and a soda because it's fairly entertaining. this is p haing to them now. we've had to deal with our own issues, now you've got spitzer and weiner and mayor feeler, as i like to call him. they have to deal with all of this. comedy writers
