"But at the same time, why is there such a paucity of strong candidates?"

Mark Plotkin on the radio today said it was due to (lack of) DC statehood. But then again, that's his answer for any problem that ever happens in/to DC. Because politicians have a glass ceiling and thus cannot aspire to higher state and congressional offices, talented individuals are not attracted to low-level local positions because there is not real career path for them. Thus sayeth Mr. Plotkin, for the millionth time.
