We need an outer borough mayor. Too many mayors of NYC only care about Manhattan. Bloomberg does nothing for the outer boroughs. Case in point when we had the snow storm a few years back with 30 inches in the southern part of the city we so no plows for days. Manhattan that got 20 inches was clear the next day. Bloomberg is not the great mayor people make him out to be. Weiner I think would bring an outer borough state of mind to the office.
