Former Rep. Anthony Weiner has slashed away at front-runner Christine Quinn’s lead in New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary, according to a poll released Tuesday, cutting her advantage in half in a little over a month.

Weiner, who formally entered the race last week, now draws 19 percent of the vote in the crowded primary field, according to the Marist University poll. Quinn, the city council speaker who is trying to become the city’s first openly gay mayor, draws 24 percent of the vote. Quinn’s lead is within the poll’s margin of error. In April, she held an 11-point lead over Weiner, 26 percent to 15 percent.

Few politicians are less likable and charismatic than Christine Quinn.

She reminds everybody of that inflexible, loudmouth bureaucrat they had a surreal and infuriating encounter with once.

I’ve never been to the Big Weenie(New York).
I’ve been to the Big Easy(New Orleans), but don’t plan on going to the
Big Weenie.

Typical Democrat politics...the frontrunners? A lesbian and an exhibitionist sex addict.
Why do we even know what these people’s sex preferences are?

NYC is almost as bad (well, they did have Rudy Guliani) as Pittsburgh. If Satan would run as a Democrat and even go as low as eat babies on TV and tie tin cans to cat's tails, Satan would still win because he is a Democrat. If Jesus Himself came to run as a Republican, Satan would still won. B-(

Weiner sez “Pick me! Pick me!”

There are no good candidates being offered for the office of Mayor of New York City.

Now that we need you, Rudy Giuliani, where are you?

I don’t think even the Huffington Post is particularly enthusiastic about any of the current lineup.

And maybe a couple of them belong on Riker’s Island.

Is this the guy that walked into the car dealer and asked “Is this where I can buy a Hummer?”

For some reason Manhattan has always appealed to Weiner:

A member of Al Qeda could win in NYC.

“Is this the guy that walked into the car dealer and asked “Is this where I can buy a Hummer?””

That would be bigamy. He’s already married to a Huma.

But then, bigamy would be alright with NYC voters, too.
