Darryl Glenn, the Republican candidate for U.S. Senate in Colorado, rowed at the Colorado Dragon Boat Festival on Sunday. The early results: His team was dead last, running 18 seconds behind the winner of the first heat of their four-boat 250-meter race. The next heat didn’t go better.
Still, Glenn’s Democratic opponent wasn’t on the water – so we don’t know who’s really tops in this all-important electoral measure. And, to be fair, we did see one report that the team improved with Glenn at the helm.
