I think his campaign may peter out...

Matt Sablan said...

"The two-minute video, which was posted online without any accompanying announcement from Mr. Weiner’s campaign, is a slickly produced argument for the candidacy of Mr. Weiner, a former congressman."

-- So, it lasted two-minutes, you say?

LarryK said...

Unless it turns out to be a well-lubed machine

O2bnaz said...

Aren't there enough dicks in politics already?

Anonymous said...

He will face some stiff opposition.

Any bets on the media not becoming as unglued as they were about Mark Sanford running?

It takes a really big dick to top Nanny Bloomberg.

kcom said...

Warning: If the Weiner candidacy lasts more than four hours see the doctor to prevent permanent damage to the body politic.

Matt Sablan said...

"Anthony D. Weiner, once a rising star..."

-- I think that was his problem.

Matt Sablan said...

"The campaign video was apparently posted prematurely."

-- ... I got nothing.

Patrick said...

I think he will take pictures of his erect penis, and send them to various women via Twitter.

Oh, were we supposed to be more subtle about this than he was?

Joe Biden, America's Putin said...

What else can he do? Weiner is useless in the real world.

Democrat Pol seeks power to screw you. Believe.

Known Unknown said...

Frankly, the beginning was good. The upbringing story ... the tales of how hard it is to make it in the city (cost of housing, businesses drowning in regulations)

It was when he got to his 'accomplishments' that I stopped watching.

John Borell said...

Wonder if he has the stamina to go all the way?

Scott M said...

"S'cuse me while I whip dis out..."

Best Mel Brooks-written line ever.

X said...

please New York, elect a dude who takes pictures of his dick. it suits you.

Known Unknown said...

"I'm a grower, not a shower"

Official campaign motto?

chickelit said...

Whip out your phallic jokes.

His movements should be circumscribed and treated with circumspection. His supporters should not circumambulate his trespasses.

chickelit said...

What he did was not done with malice and aforeskin.

Icepick said...

That's what she said.

Joe Schmoe said...

I bet he's aching to unload on his opponent.

DrMaturin said...

"Last year, though, Mr. Weiner moved from Forest Hills, Queens, to Gramercy Park in Manhattan, where he lives in a four-bedroom luxury apartment with Ms. Abedin and Jordan."

That is some seriously expensive real estate. Serious question, how did they get so rich? She's a government employee and he's been a "consultant" for less than two years. Will any reporter care to ask where their money came from?

kcom said...

There's a Big Gulp joke in there somewhere.

Tom said...

Well, gotta say it takes nuts!

Unknown said...

Voters want transparency. Weiner has shown that he is a stand up guy.

Tom said...

THAT'S what she said!

Known Unknown said...

WIll he get the coveted Ewok vote?

Tibore said...

Sometimes a cigar is... wait, is this the right metaphor?

X said...

actually his dick pics probably produce less revulsion than his face with a dick nose pics.

MadisonMan said...

Who is rubbing against him?

Sorry, that's a typo. Who is running against him?

Might he be the best candidate? I mean, that's hard to fathom, but...

KCFleming said...

"Whip out your phallic jokes."

Only gotta whip out enough to win.

X said...

his old congress buddy Jerry NADler had enough sense not to send scrote pics.

chickelit said...

Coveted in what?

Tank said...

Too soon to come back.

A premature electriculation.

So many puns unsaid. Potential headlines:

Hot-dog - Weiner taste buns at local bakery

Yackums said...

Come on, people!!!!

In the category of Creepiest Campaign Video, who gets the Oscar? Mayor Weiner.

Thank you, thank you. I'll be here all week.

bagoh20 said...

This reminds me of a friend's boss who is a truly abusive asshole, who after being forced to take anger management classes returned to work by self-announcing "The dick is back." and proceeded to be even worse than before.

AllenS said...

If he wins, will people ejaculate him?

edutcher said...

No, but he'll think he's cock of the walk.

bagoh20 said...

I don't judge. I just hope it results in a happy ending. New York needs more of those.

Lem the artificially intelligent said...

There is pic of him jay walking holding his wife hand, phone on the other hand, wearing shorts that look more like bathing shorts, while his wife is in all black with sun glasses just short of a Jacky O w/o trying look.

Im thinking 'oh i should register in nyc just so i could vote for him.'

Known Unknown said...

Campaign Staff – Weiner whips it hard

When in doubt, Weiner to whip it out

Weiner hard on campaign trail

Weiner comes to Helping Hand Jobs meeting

Weiner compares self to Chinese Premier Dung

Weiner predicts he will lick his opponents

ricpic said...

Where does the Weiner family's - Anthony and Huma's - money come from? Their combined income last year was just shy of half a million. Most of it was consulting money. I don't know that Anthony has anything in the way of access to provide his clients. Huma, on the other hand, has access both to the highest reaches of our government to offer the Saudis - the Hillary connection - and access to the Saudis to offer the permanent government in Washington and the major corporations.

"As Mayor, I will prove that the pen is mightier than the sword."

Eric the Fruit Bat said...

Not off-topic, at least to the extent this Althouse post and the link that follows both involve a dick-head in politics:

Vice President of the United States and commenter Cedarford find common ground. Link.

MB said...

Weiner proclaims its Bush’s fault; “I can’t help myself when I see Bush.”

At zoo, Weiner enjoys the beavers, no lion.

Weiner crosses swords at dinner with other Democrats

Announces – “Get ready, I’m coming!”

LarryK said...

Weiner: he always rises to the occasion and never goes limp when you need him most

LarryK said...

Could be great fodder for a Tom Wolfe book

Mayor Anthony: A Weiner in Full

LarryK said...

If we could 'like' other comments - kudos to MB

Rusty said...

Weiner's a dick.

Original Mike said...

I can't wait for his billboards.

Scientific Socialist said...

Any New Yorker even considering voting for this lowlife should take a look at this: http://youtu.be/rVJzJxE2dVI (at the 3:00 mark).

Roger J. said...

OK Althouse--and commentariat: all of you owe me a new laptop--those were priceless--and the best is yet to cum

Colonel Angus said...

The issue with Weiner isn't so much his flirtations with other women but texting barechested pics of himself is something that 17 year olds do.

Anonymous said...

I think wieners should be called sandfords.

MB said...

Richard Banghard to advise Weiner

Huma likes Amanda Palmer

Weiner says he’s Gladiator!

Says – “You ain’t seen nothing yet!”

Gets a head of himself, fails to zip it.

Weiner tells reporter he likes Mike Hunt.

Krumhorn said...

This should be fine for him. He likes to go out and press the flesh.

glenn said...

"Whip?"

MB said...

Weiner shoots wad, comes unglued that issue not sticking

Weiner troubles continue as staff leaks worsen

Weiner on top – predicts major comeback!

Weiner see opening – hits it hard

Due to security, Weiner to enter through rear

Roger J. said...

Inga--Sanford was just looking for argentinean tail--oops just walking the Appalachian trail. At least he wasn't sending pics--give him credit for more good taste than has weiner. (no pun intended)

Mustard on a hot dog claiming to be for helping the middleclass... helping them that is into retirement based on worthless money, serfdom to the Obama Gang that leads directly to the extermination for Israel and a free socialist Death Panels for all.

MB said...

Doh! Typo

Has doubts about campaign – doesn't know if he is in or out.

B said...

Works for me. We'll call self-serving lies "Inga's".

"Anthony Weiner announced his candidacy for mayor of NYC. Mr Weiner (not to be confused with the popular fast food 'sanford') is remembered for inga'ing in a press conference in the capitol rotunda about exposing himself on the Internet while a US Representative."

Administrator said...

The headlines just write themselves...

"Weiner Slides into Race"

"Weiner Needs to Raise More Than Cash"

"Weiner Faces Stiff Opposition"

"Liberal Cash Greases Way for Weiner"

"Weiner Benefits from Silver Tongue"

"Response to Weiner Campaign is Soft"

"Will Weiner Effort Have a Happy Ending?"

Thanks folks, I'm here all week! Try the veal, and tip your severs well...!"

Colonel Angus said...

Politics is truly a strange realm. Consider the private sector or even your social contacts and what your thoughts would be if say, your boss or best friends spouse tweeted his junk for everyone to see.

Likely in the real world, that person would likely be ostracized at work and among social circles. But in politics is simply a waystation to higher office.

bagoh20 said...

At least Sanford fell in love. Who would you trust with your daughter's phone number.

traditionalguy said...

Weiner stands staunchly by the standards of stoic stars of strong studs. Who will stand with him?

Joe Biden, America's Putin said...

After Weiner sinks in the polls, will he pull out early?

Colonel Angus said...

I think this is an excellent question that deserves some investigation. I'm curious also how an out if work congressman and a $150k/year govt salary pays for a few million dollar Manhattan apartment.

Ever notice how so many government employees seem to do remarkably well?

Colonel Angus said...

Electus interruptus

Dang, Inga.

We didn't even get to see Sanford's dick on facebook.

Anthony Weiner, the 3rd leg of politics.

I'm surprised he hasn't change his name to something less memorable like Tony Cox.

Higher office in The big apple has an air of prostitution about it. Unscrupulous Weiners are naturally attracted.
