Weiner pops up on Twitter again

Hurricane Sandy has blown Anthony Weiner back onto Twitter.

The disgraced congressman, who resigned last June amid a sexting scandal, returned to Twitter for the first time since his post of a sexually explicit photo on the site ended his political career.

Weiner took to Twitter yesterday to post a link to a YouTube video that included a phone message left by a devastated resident of the Rockaways over a montage of scenes from the hurricane-battered neighborhood.

It was his first tweet since he tweeted a picture of his bulging crotch, which he eventually admitted was intended as a private message to a young woman.

Sources say that Weiner has been volunteering in the Rockaways, which was part of his former congressional district, with his wife, Huma Abedin — a top aide to Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton — and Clinton’s daughter, Chelsea.

Meanwhile, Assemblyman Phil Goldfeder (D-Queens) tweeted a picture of Chelsea Clinton and Abedin in the Rockaways. Weiner is in the background, although his face is obscured.

Political observers speculated Weiner’s Twitter return on the day after the presidential election, when attention begins to shift to next year’s mayoral race, indicates he is considering running for a citywide office.
