african-americans are no longer a majority in the district. they're a plurality, they're the largest single demographic group, but the city is becomingg more diverse, that is in this is case less black, more whites, wt more asianss and more latinos. it's having a political impact, i think in the middle of thele h city especially you have a lot of young people moving in.g many of them are black, but aa larger number are white, and it is changing sort of the feel ofo the city downtown, and it's 's going to ultimately change thege politics of the city.city. >> interesting. and this is a side note.note. i drive to my old neighborhood,, 13th and missouri avenueri taking one of my daughters to ballet. and the demographics havecs have changed, not necessarily changey to a white are demographic butdo it has changed. it's progress, because anyny change, but it's definitely very interesting. >> yeah, it's a big -- >> yeah. >> i think what we saw and i sa have a column in this morning's paper talking about the sort of

early signs of the impact of the sort of the young people coming to downtown moving into thee city, what that impact was in in the last week's special election for an at large candidate for the d.c. council, and anita barns won that race, and she isi a long time democratic leader and african-american.af there was a lot of support, the number two person who sort of was the candidate of the youngt people moving into the district alisa silver man, she did very well, and much better thante people expected. expected i think her relative successrel compared to expectations is sore of act atsign of where the poli are going to be moving. mong. >> so maybe not right now. >> no. >> but down the road.e >> i think you will see some impact. what she really pushed was sorts of a liberal clean governmentnmt combination. i mean, she was really strong so on, you know, against

corruption, against the scandals we have seen in the last couple of years. she was the only candidate to refuse to take corporate oror union money.money. she hammered that, but she is is also very liberal. a lot of times, sort of the reformers have been whitewhite conservatives or t as conservative, especially by the district's very liberal libl standards. she was very liberal. she was very liberal a affordable housing. she wants a more progres progrex structure. it appeals to the people coming in, left of center ideologically. to put it in because i can hear the phone calls andcall read the e-mails. to put it in fo historical cont, d.c. was sort of a special, you can tell me if i'm wrong, butwr, different from other cities.

>> i think it's slower -- we --e were slower in the district to have the gent trif indication got going in the late 90s. 90s. after the tony williams era isis when people began to sort of of focus on it.on it and there was backlash against it in some of the elections before it.before the election of mayor gray was in sort of an exat an extent ba. this is the next decade, the political battle and jousting over gent trif indication and pot tick. moving, let's cross theng, river and go into virginia.. you have written about governore bob mcdonnell. now he finds himself in the middle of controversy as far ass spending. >> it keeps getting bigger. bigg >> and it keeps getting bigger. >> the latest -- of course, thir

controversy is over gifts that he, and his family received from a business executive johnhn williams who makes -- has ahas company in virginia that makes nutritional complements. supplements ands and mcdonnell got gifts and the family got gifts, most famously a $15,000 gift to pay for catering at mcdonnell's daughter's wedding which was not disclosed and mcdonnell saysmcdl that was perfectly legal. and then you know, they did di things that the governor and his wife maureen, did things thattht benefited the businessthe buness executive, and specifically, shh gave a speech sort of promotingm his new product, his latest nutritional supplement and thele governor's mansion was used forr a launch produc party for the pr this raised some eyebrows. i have written about it.bout other people have written aboutu it. what has happened recently isnt

two things. there's an fbi initial investigation, and we now know w this week that the fbi is askini questions basically to find out if there was a quid proquo, that is if these gifts that went to o the governor and his family were in exchange for, in effect, in exchange for the promotion of the products.od now two things to keep in mind.. mcdonnell has said, look, we, we were promoting the products.uct. we promote a lost products in virginia. there's nothing unusual about that. >> okay. >> and also this is only an initial informal investigation, this is not armal full blown corruption investigation, similar to what we have seen in the district or prince george's' county. this is just initial, sort of of see where it it's going. the other thing that has comeha out is court papers, there's ann allegation that there were moree gifts to mcdonnell's familyfami from this business executive, which have not yet been disclosed.

and he has repeatedly refused to talk about -- to basically toca say whether that is true. he is not denying that therethee were other gifts to his family i which haven't been disclosed. dd so there seems to be more tore come out there. >> all right, we will be relying on you to let us know. >> and my colleagues at theat te post. >> you are just so humble. thank you, bob mccartney. to you. still ahead in today's talkers, mourning the loss of mack daddy. daddy. breaking news from the bron section of new york city. take a look at these live pictures, a garage fire has s spread to several buildings. this fire is now at the five alarms. this is in the bronx in newin n york. in addition to the devastation there, service on two of new york subsway lines has been impacted. we will tell you more about this later on. right now it's 7:40, we will be right back.
