Maryland Politics. Gotta love 'em.

We have a governor's race, and the first salvo was shot this week.  Here's what I'm thinking now:

If you've known Baltimore City, you know it has it's problems.  Some of them carry over from administration to administration, some caused by the administration.  It's current mayor, Martin O'Malley, is running for governor... which makes him look like he's trying to escape Bal'mer's problems.  No vote.

Then there's Doug Duncan who's TV commercial hit this week. I got to see it a few minutes ago.  One thing hit me:  "I put my church first, and goverment second." Oh oh... given that many high-level bishops have rantingly ordered Christans to sue the makers of The Davinci Code movie like they were an Islamic emon(sp?), this means Doug's unfit for govermental duty.  No vote.

Which leaves current incumbant Gov. Robert Erlich -- who has it together, I admit.  He did hit a roadblock with our legistlature over slots -- something I belive the legistlature is the problem.  I really want them to have more time.  This four months out of the year biz isn't working.

Considering how many damned laws all of the various states have, I'd say that thirty days per year should be more than enough to repeal useless laws.

Given the BGE power crunch (which looks like now to end up socking everyone with the rake hike and have no relief in sight), 30 days isn't enough. I want our Speaker Bush to make a fool out of himself all year long.
