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.

I see; I’d imagine the cat was let out of the bag here by someone either supporting another candidate or simply disgusted by Weiner’s behavior. I’d think usually nothing is said about it at all, and that this “astro-turf” is often rented by Dems to pretend there is popular support for a cause or candidate. The “Obama phone” lady was part of a group following Romney around in a bus several hundred miles from her home state; she was probably the same thing but doing it for a lot less.
“There was a young man from New York...”
Better not finish this, but we all know what rhymes with “York”.
IMHO, his electile dysfunction is incurable..
