Hope you get this. I'm sending from an old newsletter.
First, I have thoroughly enjoyed your newsletters. I've read them since the pandemic, as other newsletters that encourage and entertain. Thoughtful, personal, broadminded. I appreciate your tackling of diverse topics and I always enjoy the levity.
I do think you may have missed something in your article about Abrams and O'Rourke, though. About losers and how often they lose being an indicator of their viability. I hope Stacey and Beto continue to run. If they're able to handle the losses then we can continue to support them. They certainly rise above their opponents, and have the skills for good leadership.
It's not uncommon for candidates to make several runs before they win. I'm going to convey that hope. I've learned in the past few years that remaining positive and continuing to do the hard slogging ultimately pays off. I don't know much about sports but I think the same rules apply.

I didn't remember what/whose book that was but when I saw the cover I thought: That's the kind of thing Eggers would do...
