Background

GOP mayoral candidate John Catsimatidis — who claims he’s the billionaire who cares about all five boroughs — once boasted that he was a Manhattanite who felt “sorry for those people who aren’t.”

“There are two New Yorks — Manhattan and everything else,” the supermarket mogul and Upper East Side resident told Crain’s New York Business in a 1989 profile.

“I’m a Manhattanite,” he said. “I feel sorry for those people who aren’t.”

Catsimatidis made the comments in an article that noted all his grocery stores were then located either in Manhattan or the suburbs — not in Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx or Staten Island — “reflecting his bias against opening stores in the outer boroughs.”

Anthony Weiner: 'I'm Convinced I'm Going To Be' NYC Mayor

“No one gets to go back and redo things,” he said. “I’m convinced that I’m going to be the next mayor of this city.”

A Quinnipiac University poll published last week had Mr. Weiner at 7 percent ahead of Comptroller John Liu. New York City Public Advocate Bill de Blasio has surged to 43 percent of likely voters.
