Though some folks hope never to hear the name Anthony Weiner again, I bet if he ran for his old House seat in the Special Election later this year, he could win. There are few things Americans like more than a comeback – and Weiner returning to the halls of Congress would be a political comeback for the ages.
While Weiner’s tweets and online messages shocked the country and were indefensible, he has the good fortune of being from Brooklyn and Queens, where his old constituents have a higher tolerance for such shenanigans. (New York, it’s a hell of a town.)
People in Kansas City might forgive his indiscretions, but they probably wouldn’t vote him back into Congress a few months later.
Even after the scandal broke, polls showed that roughly 60 percent of Weiner’s constituencies didn’t want him to resign. His brash personality meshes well with his district...
Obviously Anthony Weiner has Palin Derangement Syndrome.
I have no doubt that if Wiener ran as a Dem in the general election he would win in his district because the fact that he is a liberal trumps all. But the real issue is that if he runs in a contested Dem primary against another liberal, would he win? I doubt it.
And I say "RUN WIENER RUN".
Show America what Progressives/Liberals look like especially your great Tweet pictures.
They Picture Progressives Perfectly.
Utter hypocrisy from the Soros run libtard media.... =.=
That’s hilarious!!! :o)
