Weiner is good for you if…

- you want to see a New York mayoral race from the inside.
- you can laugh at a candidate digging himself deeper on live television.
Weiner is bad for you if…
- you can't root for a candidate who keeps hiding the truth from his own team.
- you need something light, and watching a marriage strain in public isn't.
