if i were an oscar meyer weiner, everyone would be in love with me....

or everything old is new again...for once, i do not envy those that live within new york city's borders...to say that truth is stranger than fiction is the greatest understatement in new york city politics...i stand corrected...new york state politics...the return of spitzer...the return of the madam...kristen davis...not the lightweight actress of "sex and the city" fame...no, the piece of work that says she is a feminist...setting the feminist movement back to the stone age...says she's running against him...who is really running these days...certainly not the voters to the polls...then weiner...i won't even blog the billion jokes, puns, one-liners...because bloomberg is leaving the city in quite a mess...and because the voters actually would have chosen weiner against all his opponents...until he latest mea culpa...no, this mayoral race is not a joke...just ask detroit...oh, and being in nassau county is not exactly a political laughfest either...let's see...for county executive you have the current, mangano, running against the former, suozzi...neither has been able to get a grasp on a county being swept away in a fiscal cesspool...but they will spend lots of money...make lots of photo ops...and the sandy-weary voters will shrug and pull the lever...and let us not forget the man who would be king...peter king...abrasive...doesn't play well with others...never will make page six of the post...nah, this king will never text a photo of the crown jewels...yawn...snooze...no scandal...you lose
