i'd love to have anthony weiner back,

[DesertFlower]

but not as mayor of new york but in congress where he can fight for all of us.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

1. i kinda want him as my mayor

so he has my vote.

[Xipe Totec]

2. Oscar Mayor? nt

[DesertFlower]

4. as a former new yorker i understand.

actually he represented the district i lived in (forest hills).

[La Lioness Priyanka]

6. my parents live in that district

[DesertFlower]

10. i've heard it's still nice there.

[femmocrat]

3. Same here.

I just want to see him vindicated.

[Warpy]

5. I just want him back wherever he wants to go in politics

Maybe he's hoping mayor to governor to president, and wouldn't that be great!

I don't care that he's a horndog or a rat of a husband. I don't want to marry him, I just want him back fighting the good fight.

It's up to his wife to figure out if she's better off with him or without him.

7. I am voting for him if he runs.

We need an outer borough mayor. Too many mayors of NYC only care about Manhattan. Bloomberg does nothing for the outer boroughs. Case in point when we had the snow storm a few years back with 30 inches in the southern part of the city we so no plows for days. Manhattan that got 20 inches was clear the next day. Bloomberg is not the great mayor people make him out to be. Weiner I think would bring an outer borough state of mind to the office.

12. we had a terrible snow storm in '69.

queens was a mess. if i hadn't remembered where i parked my car i wouldn't have been able to find it.

[hrmjustin]

13. I have heard of that storm. Lindsey got in trouble for not moving fast enough on it i think.

Or maybe it was another one.

[DesertFlower]

14. lindsey was criticized.

i was upstate new york (around nyack) at a club when it started on saturday night. i remember how weird it was driving home on the new york thruway in my '66 mustang. it was a strange kind of quietness with just my radio playing.

[cali]

8. Each to their own. I don't live in NY so I don't have a say

but there's something about him that's always bugged me- before the twitter incident.

[sabrina 1]

9. His constituents wanted him and being NYers, didnt seem to care too much about his personal life.

The Republicans were pretty silent being they weren't in a position to say much considering their own 'scandals' at the time. But the Dem leadership drove him out. I won't forget that.

He was right in the middle of finally getting some attention for Clarence Thomas and his wife's conflicts of interests re Citizens United. So I guess Thomas had to be saved. It worked, we haven't heard much more about that situation since.

[Recursion]

11. His is a vote I would love to have back

We all make mistakes.

[CTyankee]

20. Yeah, and I think New Yawkers don't really care that much...

they just want to know the guy has the moxie to do the job. New Yawkers aren't very shy with their opinions...LOL...you find that out 5 minutes into the city...

[LittleBlue]

15. This guy feels so forced on us

It's like the media and Democratic Party need him for some reason. He's an embarrassment waiting to happen, let him find a job that doesn't involve one of our safe districts being jeopardized by his perverted online habits.

[Cooley Hurd]

16. The guy tweeted his dick...

THAT should NOT be a Death Sentence for his career.

[Nye Bevan]

17. Let he who hath never tweeted his erect cock cast the first stone.

(Stolen from "The Onion&quot

[DesertFlower]

19. you made me smile. thank you.

[dawg]

18. You just made something horrible pop into my brain.

I'm hearing Justin Timberlake singing, "I'm Bringing Sexy Back". Only now he's singing, "I'm Bringing Weiner Back".

Them other fellas don't know how to act.

[smirkymonkey]

21. So would I as a former New Yorker.

He made a really stupid mistake, but if his wife can forgive him so can I.
