CLEARWATER BEACH, Fla. — Former Queens Rep. Anthony Weiner is still a national joke.
House Speaker John Boehner made Weiner, who resigned last year in a sexting scandal, a punch line in a breakfast speach this morning to the New York and Puerto Rico GOP delegatons.
“People have trouble with my name. Is it Bainer? Bonner? Boner?,” he said to nervous giggles..
“At least it’s not Weiner!,” he said.
The half-sleepy delegates erupted with wild applause.
Boehner also said he was confident that the GOP could pick up a few more House seats in New York this fall to help retain its majority.
