Rival campaigns’ plan of attack for Anthony Weiner: Hit him where it hurts

The city’s mayoral hopefuls are sharpening their knives — and Anthony Weiner better be ready to answer the hard questions about his sexting scandal.

Sources in the camps of several campaigns said they have been in dirt-digging overdrive ever since the shamed former congressman hinted he was eyeing a mayoral run that would pit him against an already crowded field, including Christine Quinn, Joe Lhota, Bill de Blasio and Bill Thompson.

Potential rivals are aggressively compiling dossiers and detailed lists of questions about the Democrat’s three-year foray into social-media sexting in hope of keeping the illicit Web exchanges at the center of any mayoral bid.

Some contenders are dispatching workers to squeeze Weiner’s online sexting partners — he has claimed there were six in all — for information about the late-night exchanges, which culminated in the infamous “crotch shot” tweet that imploded his career.

“They are taking it very seriously,” a source familiar with the frenzied activity told The Post.

“He is such a danger to them, and he has so much money, that the thinking is, if Weiner wants to run, he has to be destroyed.”

“A lot of questions haven’t been answered about the tweets,” said another source in the campaign of a mayoral candidate.

Among the questions they intend to ask, the source said, are: “What was in them? What did he tell that 16-year-old girl, or 17-year-old girl? He was dealing with someone who was underage?”

I hope he can stick out the political assaults on him. Just for the horrible puns alone.

Maybe he should try Botoxing that junk. It’s the Democrat way.

My favorite headline form the last Anthony Weiner scandal:

“Harry Reid Hangs Weiner Out To Dry”

I’d say that he faces some stiff competition.

To hit Anthony Weiner where it hurts, you take his digital camera away from him so he can't taking photos of his privates. The withdrawal would be worse than taking him off heavy duty drugs.
