Anthony Weiner's campaign manager calls it quits amid new revelations

Danny Kadem, Anthony Weiner's campaign manager, has stepped down after the candidate's most recent publicity regarding his behavior online, according to The New York Times. TODAY's Erica Holt interviews David Gregory of NBC's "Meet the Press" about the impact this could have on Weiner's campaign.

By Daniel Arkin, Staff Writer, NBC News

Anthony Weiner?s campaign manager has quit in the wake of new revelations about the New York City mayoral candidate's online communications with women, according to a spokeswoman.

The move was first reported by The New York Times late Saturday and confirmed to NBC News by Barbara Morgan, Weiner?s press contact.

Danny Kedem, 31, informed Weiner that he could no longer run day-to-day operations after the mayoral hopeful admitted Tuesday that he continued to send raunchy photos and messages to women after resigning from Congress in 2011 amid a "sexting" scandal, according to the Times report.

When contacted by NBC News, Kedem declined to comment.

Kedem?s resignation deals another blow to Weiner?s beleagured campaign, which has struggled to rebound in the polls following the candidate?s disclosures in the last week.

On Tuesday, Weiner confessed to explicit communications with six to ten women ? three of them after he resigned ? after a gossip website published texts and photos it said were from 2012.

Eduardo Munoz / Reuters

Former U.S. congressman from New York and current Democratic candidate for New York City Mayor Anthony Weiner stops to speak to the media outside after speaking to members of Brownsville Community Baptist Church in Brooklyn, New York on July 28.

At a press conference Tuesday, Weiner ? accompanied by his wife, Huma Abedin, an aide to Hillary Clinton ? apologized and asked voters for a second chance.

?Some of these things happened before my resignation. Some of them happened after,? Weiner said.

?While some things that have been posted today are true and some are not, there is no question that what I did was wrong. This behavior is behind me,? he said, calling his digital indiscretions ?problematic to say the least and destructive to say the most.?

On Monday, the gossip website The Dirty claimed that Weiner, allegedly using the alias ?Carlos Danger,? met an unnamed 22-year-old woman on the social media website Formspring in July 2012, sent her explicit photos and had phone sex with her before the relationship ?fizzled.?

Weiner, a six-term congressman who represented the New York City boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens, resigned in disgrace in June 2011 after it was revealed he sent a photo of himself in his underwear to a woman via Twitter.

He initially denied it was him in the photo or that he sent it, but Weiner eventually came clean, confessing that he had carried on ?inappropriate? conversations through Twitter, Facebook, email and over the phone with six women over a three-year period.

And yet, less than two years after a stunning fall from grace, Weiner, 48, appeared to be in the midst of a comeback.

Two months after he announced his return to the political stage, he was near or at the top in several polls in the race to replace Michael Bloomberg, eclipsing New York City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, who was widely considered the frontrunner.

Kedem was likely a key ingredient in Weiner's successful formula, helping to transform the long-shot candidate -- a mainstay of tabloid headlines and late-night talk show punchlines -- into a legitimate contender for New York City's top job.

Weiner has not indicated that he will drop out of the race.

Tracy Connor of NBC News contributed to this report.

Viewpoints: Rove Warns Against Government Shutdown; 'Despicable' GOP Tactics; Medicare Database A Tool To Control Costs

Fox News: Republicans Must Resist Game Of Chicken With President Over Obamacare
President Obama would love nothing more than Republicans? providing him a bully pulpit and big stick with which he can beat them daily through the 2014 midterm elections. ?That?s what the Republicans would give Mr. Obama if they shut down the government by trying to defund Obamacare in the Continuing Resolution (CR) to fund the federal government after October 1. That?s because the Continuing Resolution only affects discretionary spending. ?Virtually all of Obamacare costs are mandatory spending, unaffected by what?s in the CR (Karl Rove, 7/26).

Bloomberg: Drop The Disastrous Plan To Defund Obamacare
Conservatives on Capitol Hill think they have a chance to strike a mortal blow against President Barack Obama?s health-care overhaul this fall. If their plan goes forward, however, it will backfire. The plan is to oppose any bill to fund the government or increase the debt limit that also provides money for putting the health-care law in place (Ramesh Ponnuru, 7/26).

The New York Times:?The War Over Health Care Exchanges
Federal and state governments are entering the home stretch in the race to carry out the most important health care reform in more than four decades. The most pressing task is to establish new health care exchanges, the electronic marketplaces in which consumers will be able to compare and buy insurance plans just as they buy airplane tickets or rent cars on the Internet. ...?To their shame and discredit, Republicans are trying to block efforts to inform people about the law and are using scare tactics to keep them from enrolling. ... Their tactics are despicable?(7/26).

Roll Call:?Open Exchanges To The Poor In States That Opt Out Of Medicaid
Passage of the Affordable Care Act has positioned the United States to establish a national floor of insurance coverage for nearly all Americans, using an approach that combines employer coverage with Medicaid for the poor and a subsidized health insurance marketplace (exchanges) for people who have neither. Several unexpected twists threaten to derail this effort. The question is how to devise a solution (Sara Rosenbaum and Patricia Gabow, 7/26).

Politico: Give The Public Access To The Medicare Database
For no compelling reason, a commanding tool for trying to contain health care costs is lying unused. That sidelined powerhouse is the Medicare claims database, which holds a record of all payments from taxpayers to physicians and other providers for seniors? health care (Sen. Chuck Grassley and Sen. Ron Wyden, 7/28).

The Wall Street Journal: The Affordable Care Act's Rate-Setting Won't Work
Although I've been critical of many components of the law, there is still much to applaud. Accountable Care Organizations could eliminate duplicative services and prevent medical errors while seeking to reduce costs for individuals, particularly if their creation ultimately leads to the end of fee-for-service medicine, as I believe it will. In addition, the Health Insurance Marketplace exchange systems, once implemented, will provide individuals with competitive plan options based on price, services, quality and other factors. Even more important, the exchanges will make the process of securing health insurance much easier and more transparent for millions who don't currently have it. ? That said, the law still has its flaws, and American lawmakers and citizens have both an opportunity and responsibility to fix them. One major problem is the so-called Independent Payment Advisory Board (Howard Dean, 7/28).?

The Washington Post: Mr. Obama Should Not Ignore Entitlements?
But that?s a far cry from leveling with the public about the fact that Social Security, Medicare and the rest are crowding out other domestic priorities ? including those that the president emphasized in his speeches ? and that these programs are at the heart of the country?s long-term fiscal challenges, which have still not been addressed even as the deficit has declined in the short term (7/27).

The Hill: Opinion: GOP Gets It Wrong On Health Law
Eighty-three percent of Americans, according to last week?s NBC/Wall Street Journal poll, disapprove of Congress. That was the highest level in the history of the poll. The anger is so deep now that 57 percent want the entire Congress thrown out (Juan Williams, 7/29).

The New York Times: News Analysis: The Hype Over Hospital Rankings
Last week U.S. News and World Report released its annual list of ?Best Hospitals.? Web sites are being updated to celebrate victories. (Johns Hopkins ranks No. 1!) ... For American hospitals large and small, it clearly pays to advertise, particularly in these tough economic times and with the Affordable Care Act poised to throw tens of millions of newly insured patients into the market. ... Some critics decry the glut of hospital self-promotion as not just wasteful and costly, but also potentially dangerous?(Elizabeth Rosenthal, 7/27).

Dunn, the coach of the Eastern Conference and defending champion Indiana Fever, was named to the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame's Class of 2014.

"This is my 43rd year coaching basketball," Dunn said. "I've coached college and professional and even before Title IX [was enacted]. It's a moment in my career to reflect and look back. I'm humbled to be going into a Hall of Fame that many of my friends already belong."

The class was announced Saturday during halftime of the WNBA All-Star Game. Joining Dunn is former WNBA star Yolanda Griffith. Former collegiate All-Americans Michelle Edwards and Jasmina Perazic also will be inductees.

The other honorees are former TV analyst Mimi Griffin and former coach/athletic director Charlotte West.

Status Quo

During a 15-minute pregame media session, WNBA President Laurel Richie said the league is more interested in building the health of its 12 teams than worrying about expansion.

"We want to make sure those teams are as strong as they can be," Ritchie said. "I would say expansion is in the future, but we have not assigned a number [of teams] or date on [the process]."

"We're no different than any other league. Our goal is to bring more fans to the arenas. We look at our attendance figures, which are heading in the right direction. We look at our [corporate] sponsorships, which are heading in the right trajectory. We want to keep heading in that direction."

Ritchie would not comment about the future of player compensation, currently capped at $107,000 a year. That's because the Collective Bargaining Agreement with the Players' Association is up for renegotiation after the season.

Female World

Taurasi Issues Challenge

Diana Taurasi made news a few years ago by posing nude for ESPN The Magazine's "Body Issue," which features athletes in various stages of undress. This year's issue featured her former UConn and Olympic teammate, Swin Cash.

Taurasi was asked who won the contest.

"I mean, we can go full frontal if [Cash] wants," Taurasi said, laughing.

'Four Of Five'

Dunn, coach of the defending WNBA champion Fever, had to hold herself back at the end of the game as the West was pulling away for the win. She said she forgot for a moment that she was coaching an all-star game.

"One thing about me, I like to win," Dunn said. "We had five goals going into the game ? showcase it, give everyone quality minutes, have fun, no injuries and win. We got four of five. But it was tremendously hard at the end of the game and my assistant had to remind me this was an all-star game. I had blocked it out."
