This morning, Anthony Weiner’s political mentor Sen. Chuck Schumer refused to endorse Weiner. Anthony Weiner announced earlier this week he would be running to be the Mayor of New York City. Weiner was once considered a frontrunner for the position, but then a lewd tweeting scandal rocked him, forcing the congressman to resign his seat in Congress. When appearing on CBS’s Face the Nation, host Bob Schieffer asked about the race, and the senior senator from New York refused to comment. Schumer and Weiner go way back actually. Weiner worked for Schumer and then later succeeded him in the House when Schumer got elected to the Senate.
