Friends urging disgraced Anthony Weiner to run for office

[NYPOST] Friends and allies of Anthony Carlos Danger Weiner
...aka Hot Dog Tony, the remarkably offensive sex maniac six-term New York congressman who resigned in 2011, then decided everybody had forgotten by 2013, when he decided to run for mayor of New York City...
are urging the disgraced ex-congressman to stage a political comeback.
He's a Dem. They'll vote for him.
The former pol raised eyebrows after he attended the Inner Circle charity dinner with his estranged wife Huma Abedin last Saturday.

"He has been encouraged to run for office by me and others ... When politics is in your blood as it is in his, I don’t think you ever rule it out," said Curtis Sliwa, who hosts "The Left Versus The Right" with Weiner on 77 WABC radio.

"To be the moderate Democrat, to be what this city needs now to take it back from AOC. He knows the moderate path to save the city.

"There’s always going to be misgivings lingering. That will never go away," Sliwa said of Weiner’s sordid past. "He has to constantly speak out on the subject of his problems and how you can make amends for that. You can become an example. That’s the only way."

Sliwa had pushed Weiner to throw his name into the brutal lower Manhattan congressional Democratic primary in 2022, which ultimately went to Levi Strauss heir and parking ticket scofflaw Dan Goldman.
