A chastened Anthony Weiner yesterday made his return to the airwaves with a radio interview on ObamaCare — his first since resigning from Congress in disgrace more than a year ago.
“I still have regrets,” Weiner said during an interview on WNYC. “I paid a very high price . . . As I said when I resigned, I feel great regrets for the people that I’ve let down.”
In between changing his 6-month-old’s diapers, the scandal-scarred ex-congressman broke his self-imposed silence to talk about Thursday’s Supreme Court ruling on ObamaCare.
Though most of his appearance was focused on President Obama’s health-care plan, the real purpose is for Weiner to begin rolling out his return to public life, sources told The Post.
“I paid a very high price.”
The moves come after months of discussion between Weiner and his wife, top Hillary Rodham Clinton aide Huma Abedin, about the best way to pull off a comeback.
