weinindexThis documentary about the mayoral campaign of Anthony Weiner is fascinating.

Flabbergasting really.

Weiner, if you recall, was once a U.S. Congressman from NY, who reluctantly resigned his position, after it was revealed that he’d sent text messages of his underpants covered erect penis to women who weren’t his wife.

His run for mayor was an attempt at rehabilitation and to stay in the public’s eye. And he was ahead in that race, until it was revealed that his peculiar character trait had not abated after his initial fall from grace.

During that mayoral quest, Weiner allowed intimate, close and personal access to the filmmakers.

Who knows why? Narcissism, one supposes.

But it makes for compelling viewing.
