You love to see it. I mentioned during the 2022 primary that MD-Gov was interesting in having a quite reasonable Democrat facing a quite unreasonable Republican. (PA and SC also had this pattern, and perhaps a few more I'm blanking on).

I think the loser should resign in disgrace. Give this some real stakes!

Government buildings should be ugly and depressing on the outside. That gives DC its aesthetic.

The marble buildings in DC are beautiful, I have no idea what planet you live on.

They are beautiful if you are a visitor. They are ugly when you see them everyday and work in them.

I’m convinced Wes Moore is Governor Obama. The dude is going to go pretty far one day.

He's a young and successful Black man with a young family and a background in the non-profit sector who first came into renown as an author before winning his first statewide race by a landslide margin. He also has one parent with an immigrant background.

Out of curiosity I googled Youngkin's and Moore's height. Youngkin clocks in at 6'7" (I knew he was pretty tall but that is impressive) but I couldn't find anything on Moore.

My buddy's uncle was the head coach who recruited Glenn Youngkin to play basketball for him at Rice. I don't know how he feels about his former player's subsequent career, but his brother isn't a fan.

Every time I see the name "Wes Moore" I think of Wes Moore the basketball coach at North Carolina State. Maybe he can offer his services here.

This will be interesting.  Youngkin is considerably taller and more experienced with basketball, but Moore is considerably younger and also an athlete at the same level (college football).
