Christine Quinn would be a horrible mayor. She led the charge for overturning the term limits law. All she cares about is Christine Quinn. She really is a poser.
It was Jack Ryan - not Dan Ryan and he was a pervert who tried to force his wife to participate in swingers clubs and wife swapping. He sabotaged his own campaign as the news media filed a motion to unseal his divorce file; something he stupidly agreed to. In 2004, Ryan had Justin Warfel (a campaign worker) follow his opponent, Barack Obama, throughout the day and record everything he did in public on videotape. The tactic backfired when Barack Obama and others, including Ryan's supporters, criticized this activity. Ryan's spokesman apologized, and promised that Warfel would give Obama more space. In those divorce files, Jeri Ryan alleged that Jack Ryan had asked her to perform sexual acts with him in public in sex clubs in New York, New Orleans, and Paris. Jeri Ryan described one as "a bizarre club with cages, whips and other apparatus hanging from the ceiling. Prior to release of the documents, Ryan claimed he had told leading Republicans that the divorce file could cause problems for his campaign. After the documents were released, GOP Chair Judy Baar Topinka said of Ryan's comment "It may have been somewhat misleading." Topinka said after the June 25 withdrawal that Ryan's "decision was a personal one" and that the state GOP had not pressured Ryan to drop out. Ryan's campaign ended less than a week after the records were opened, and Ryan officially filed the documentation to withdraw on July 29, 2004. The same party leaders who called for Ryan's resignation chose Alan Keyes as Ryan's replacement in the race; Keyes lost to Obama, 27% to 70%. Alan Keyes? Nice choice...
Anthony Weiner was the leader until his fiasco. The radical crowd wanted him out of the way so that Quinn, the "darling of the left", could enter the fray. Do some research on Dan Ryan whose wife, the actress Jeri Ryan, sabotaged the campaign for the Senate in Illinois against the current president. Politics is a "rotten game" and right now the "lefties" are more clever in their deceit.
The last Irish mayor of New York City was Bob Wagner, January 1, 1954 – December 31, 1965. His mother was from Cork.
