San Francisco Citizen

Via SF FYI Net, we discover San Francisco Deputy City Attorney Scott Wiener (the preferred spelling of “weiner” is w-I-E-n-e-r, as in “Vienna“) just officially announced his candidacy today for District 8 Supervisor on the YouTube.

It looked a little like this, complete with elevator dings – listen for them:

Scott  joins Rafael Mandelman, Laura Spanjian and Rebecca Prozan as the putative frontrunners in the replace-Bevan Dufty-race, which is just a “short” 16 months away.

PRINCIPAL SKINNER: Whoever did this is in very deep trouble.

MARTIN: And a sloppy speller, too! The preferred spelling of “weiner” is w-I-E-n-e-r, though E-I is an acceptable ethnic variant.

PRINCIPAL SKINNER: Good point.
