and christine quinn in contrast to that was brutally honest about her own struggles with bulimia and lism. so that kind of candor contrasted with weiner's previous lies, could be very hard for him. for quinn, i think the challenge is that she is starting to get a little whiff of entitlement. it seem like she's the front runner. just today there's an education debate that she decided not to participate in. anthony weiner is of course, there. so she has to be careful with that. and one just quick technical note. in new york city, if no candidate in the primary reaches 40%, then there will be a run-off. i think if it was quinn and weener in a run-off, kind of all bets are off. the race restarts from there. >> let's not forget, anthony weiner is kind of a jerk. he doesn't have a lot of friends. before the scandal even. he didn't have the greatest reputation. imagine that next to christine quinn. that probably serves him well against a republican but he first has to get through her. imagine his smug dismissive, priggishness next to her. a woman who has put in a lot of time and money and ef

what we've seen from the polling so far is that he would take a race that right now is basically christine quinn against a pack of challengers led by blazio, the public advocate of the city and turn that into a two tear race with him against quinn and everybody else lapping at their heels. it's name recognition wiener is well known because of twitter and he didn't run a very strong race for mayor in 2005. he would probably set up a dynamic of him against quinn fighting for not just winning the primary, but determining who might make it into a run off in new york city. we have a system where if you don't get 40% on the first go, there is a run off two weeks later where alliances shift. quinn wants to avoid a run off. her chances of wing a run off don't look good compared to winning the primary outright. wiener might change those dynamics. >> it would seem it would. i grew up in new york city. it seemed like a pretty progressive place i remember thinking that growing up there and from afar. history has shown us it's not easy a elect a progressive mayor there. why would that be? i can think of davi

christine quinn, the frontrunner, her poll numbers have been declining. to hold steady to make it to the runoff. >> he is the only candidate in the race whose negatives are known. >> right. >> you're not going to come up with a negative ad on anthony weiner that tells anybody anything they don't know. the other ones have lower visibility. people start to discover things about quinn and others, and think oh, maybe i don't like that. >> i think that's exactly right. his challenge is to me not so much the photos themselves, there's more of a trust issue in two directions. one is, is he about anything other than himself? is he really just interested in this office for his own ambition to rehab his image? i think that's an obstacle. >> what would give you that idea. >> i know, crazy anyone would think that. i think that's one obstacle he has to overcome. the other issue that is surrounding the photos is again, always not the scandal but the coverup, he lied to new yorkers. he said i did not do this. and i think that is fair game for his opponents. >> he is lyi

it's very worrisome. >> christine quinn is not only running for mayor but she's been serving alongside mayor bloomberg. so to see someone like anthony weiner come in and so strongly, it's got to be shocking to quinn and her team. more than half this the marist poll say weiner should be given a second chance. congressman cuomo and others are saying another. chuck schumer has been questioned about it. he's not going to get in this one, even though weiner's gaining ground on quinn. >> the reality is weiner's campaign is built around his status as an outsider, and a shunned outsider as well. his whole brand is about coming from the outer boroughs, not embraced by institutions in new york city. that was his shtick. that was what made him rise to the top of the pack when he first ran for mayor a few years ago. it is absolutely a requirement this time around because there are very few people this time around endorsing him, especially, chuck shumer. the jabs from the newspapers, the "new york post" and "the daily news." ultimately when it comes down to voting is he basically cutting into the b

christine quinn. the new york city council speaker and the clear front-runner in the mayoral race. gay and married. she has a bold, brash, persona and a bit to the chrisç christ mold and a close political friend of mayor bloomberg. quinn is leading the recent quinnipiac poll by a lot and dominating the fund-raising race and i wouldn't bother you with details of this local race except your favorite cyclist is in the primary, and new york primaries have national reverberations. the last two, bloomberg and giuliani, were in the presidential conversation for a brief period. there's a historic aspect to quinn's candidacy. she would become one of the most powerful openly gay elected officials in american history. some of the dynamics around her seemingly inevitable candidacy would be instructed for other races like, say, hillary 2016. being the overwhelming favorite leads to sucking up all the oxygen in the race. almost all the media coverage gravitates to you as do northeast of the donors. hillary found out in '08, inevitability is a challenge in and of itself. the front-runner absorbs

. >> christine quinn responded by saying the city has moved on from a time when same-sex couples cannotn the street without fear and harassment. we refuse to go back to that time. we've seen marriage equality in the state of new york and blossoming in 11 other states around the country with more states to come. just because the states and country might be moving forward after the supreme court comes back at the end of june with the advancement of gay rights, it doesn't mean homophobia will end. >> that's right. there's still lots of bigotry and violence every day everywhere, including in places like new york. and that we can't become too complacent around issues like this. and i think that some of the debate, i mean, you know, people in washington and in other state capitals that are debating issues of gay rights, they have to remember that when they oppose -- when they oppose civil rights protection for lbgt americans, i know that they're not, you know, nobody supports violence but when they oppose basic civil rights protections, these people are getting their ideas from somewhere and

i think christine quinn probably will win the mayor's office. lead isn't that big at this point, given her status as the front-runner. 25% doesn't make you that much of a front-runner. so anything could happen. i think we'll just learn something about how people think about this particular -- >> look, you know what i think? i think people ought to show public. when they do something really wrong like this, humiliating to not just them but the country that paid attention to them, they should get out of action for a while, garden, spend some -- obviously we don't agree on this. spencer, for example, he asked me something and i said, you ought to go away for a while and do some job that's not very high profile, do something for the people for once and maybe work yourself back. but the shame to say, give me another chance like we're supposed to forgive him, it's not about forgiving. it's about putting him up on the pedestal. you can forgive a lot. i don't know why you'd forgive this. you're the person to welcome everybody to america. you're the face

the polls since the first poll when he was in second place behind the city council president christine quinngone up five points and she's stayed the same. the latest poll has her at 24%, weiner 19%, just five points behind her. the fact he's gaining ground and she has not gone up at all despite being the presumptive favorite may help explain why she is not participating in the debate today. the other five democratic candidates are. but it is very interesting and the fact is based on today's numbers. there is a big undecided vote, based on today's numbers, he would be -- he would force a runoff contest. not to say he would win, but if neither candidate -- if no candidate gets 40% of the vote, there will be a runoff vote and it would be her and him. >> how about that? that debate happening in a couple of minutes. you are going to be talking about eric holder. we just learned the attorney general is being investigated for possibly lying to congress. >> yeah. i think that there is enough legalistic wiggle room for the attorney general to say he did not lie to congress. the question is he was ask
