So Rebecca Yanisch has dropped out of the race for Congress, proving that a campaign really is a sprint, not a marathon.
What was your favorite Rebecca Yanisch for Congress moment?
(Update: Got an e-mail suggesting a gender bias and saying, "I’ll be curious to see if male candidates get the same treatment on your pages." By the way, I get this a lot. Not about gender but anytime we focus on, well, anything. After the Republican CD controversy, I got a bunch that said "I can't wait to see how you'll handle it when the Democrats get in trouble." To which I say: "meet Dean Johnson." But I haven't heard from those people again. Anyway, back to our story about my gender bias and curiosity with how I'd handle it when a man drops out of the race after 4 days. Well, why wait? I already did it.)
