Gov. Cuomo: 'Shame On Us' If Anthony Weiner Is Elected NY Mayor
The New York Daily News ^ | 05/23/2013 | Ken Lovett

Gov. Cuomo says it would be shameful if Anthony Weiner is elected mayor.

Cuomo, during an appearance before the Syracuse Post-Standard's editoral board Wednesday, stayed neutral when asked his thoughts on Weiner entering the race.

"He runs? He runs," the paper quotes him as saying in a transcript

But asked how he would feel if Weiner (self-pictured at right) were to be elected, Cuomo was blunt.

"Shame on us," he replied.

Cuomo, a Democrat, has said he has no plans to get involved in the mayor's race.

He gave a less definitive answer hours before he spoke to the Syracuse paper when asked by reporters in Buffalo for his reaction to Weiner's mayoral bid.

“None,” Cuomo said.

"No reaction. Look, my face didn’t move. No reaction."

The last thing Cuomo probably wants to discuss is the race of a candidate who resigned his congressional seat amid a sexting scandal.

Hasn’t there been enough Weiner flogging in NY politics?

I've heard that Weiner has hired Oscar Meyer to be his campaign manager.

Weiner was made for NYC just like Doomsburg was.

I could think of no better representation for NYC than Mayor Anthony Weiner. You get the government you deserve.

Drudge obviously liked this, with “Cuomo Slaps Weiner”, but it is wide open to other gags.

“Cuomo cuts off Weiner”

“Cuomo pounds Weiner”

“Cuomo ashamed of Weiner”
