Former Rep. Anthony Weiners (D-N.Y.) friends believe that, while his campaign for mayor may have become a joke, it will set him up for a future political comeback.
New York voters puzzle over why Weiner stays in the race despite constant ridicule. The citys tabloids pump out streams of headlines punning on his name while late-night comics have made him a national punch line.
Instead of dropping out, Weiner has embraced the media maelstrom in a calculated gamble that voters would respect his toughness and dedication to their issues.
A new documentary by Stateless Media captures Weiners unorthodox campaign strategy, which sometimes resonated and, other times, fell flat with voters.
Weiners friends say he is setting himself up for a comeback in another race and another year.
Bill Brandt, a close friend of Weiners wife, Huma Abedin, said Weiners campaign will clear the way for a future run for office.

They are just doing it for spending money; they have no vested interest in the campaign. Weiner will stay in the race until the money is gone either way.
As a bus stop.
I can see him as the bell captain of a Caribbean resort hotel.
It would be perfect for him.
If a Weiner’s “outer circle” is prepped properly, the chances of come-back are minimal ....
Just when you thought Weiner was completely spent, he’s up again and talking about a comeback!
Little prick is persistent.
If you’re weiner’s advisor, you are looking at the economy that weiner helped obama create, and you are thinking “Yeah, boss - you can do it! Run again!!!”
I suppose anything is possible when you live in a fantasy world as Carlos Danger.
New York has many flaws, but it is pretty obvious that the jerk factor surrounding this Weiner is far too high for the electorate there.
Now THAT'S saying something.
Bill Brandt, a close friend of Weiners wife, Huma Abedin, said Weiners campaign will clear the way for a future run for office.
Aaaaah, but for WHO?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!! Although the ONLY job this putz could get is from OTHER STUPID PUTZES VOTING FOR HIM!!
“Weiner’s inner circle” = gross
As long as there are pubic offices available, Weiner will rise to the occasion.
Don’t laugh. Look at Slick Willy ... he’s the darling of the press and the Progressives .... just about any a$$hole can make it in NYC and the other Progressive rat holes of the world.
I prefer Clinton/Weiner. It keeps Hillary associated with this deviant behavior.
I wouldn’t trust him with my dog. I wouldn’t trust him as grave digger. I can’t think of a job I would trust him with.
