I think I'd rather have Quinn than Thompson, but I need to learn more about him.

I guess Weiner's campaign has gone limp.

And now pressure is building on him to pull out.

I have no idea who is going to win this primary race.  I really don't trust the polling and I think this is a very dynamic race.  However, I think in a crowded field a lot of it comes down to coalitions.  I'm not an expert on city politics but, my guesses would be:

Blacks: Thompson
Asians: Liu
Orthodox Jews: Thompson
Whites: Quinn / Weiner
Gays: Quinn
Liberals: De Blasio
Women: Quinn
Labor: Thompson/ De Blasio

The one I'm more unsure about is the latino vote.

This is easily the most entertaining race of the year.

Yes, this will be special in all senses of the word.

I'll likely be doing the same sort of demographic analysis-thing as I did last time round, if anyone's interested.

To top everything off: Weiner spent $43K of campaign money in 2011 to investigate who hacked his Twitter account.

Which is extra stupid when you remember that he made up the "hacking" story.

New Q-Poll out: Weiner drops to 4th, Quinn leads with 27, De Blasio 21, Thompson 20, Weiner 16. Quinn would lose a runoff to Thompson 50-40.

He just needs to pull ahead of Quinn now to get to the runoff since Thompson will win black voters handily at the end of the day (which probably guarantees him a spot).

Looks like Weiner's campaign is melting down. A female intern quit and wrote a tell-all for the NYDN. When asked for comment, Weiner's female spox unleashed a torrent of vile misogyny on the ex-intern.

Part of me wants Weiner to make it to the runoff just so I can keep watching the Clintons sweat.

A Weiner-de Blasio runoff would be great.

That is magnificent.

I was looking forward so much to Quinn-Weiner and now it won't happen...

Why is he still in this? Is he just begging to be publicly tortured?
