The idea that a Democratic-establishment guy like Tom Perez will run to the "far left"...

PP, you might want to recalibrate your scale.


Nah PP is right here. Perez has openly flirted with socialism is on the left fringe of the party.

I guess this puts Perez in a pickle, because apparently people like you think he’s a socialist while party activists think he’s a hack.

Sounds like fun! Open flirting, at parties!

But really, I have no idea what you're talking about.

I got called for a poll he paid for. It was a terrible poll. Before the poll, I'd never heard of him. After the poll, I decided: Nope, no way.

I’m curious what he thinks the point of his campaign is. My guess is that he’s trying to up his profile to run for Senate to replace Cardin when he retires or maybe a house seat after more expected gerrymandering to get rid of Harris who everyone hates.

He’s in Baltimore. No amount of gerrymandering is putting him in Andy Harris’s district.

He'll never raise the money needed. He didnt last time, when he actually had some juice.

I don't think there is a requirement to live in your district?

Perez’s whole strategy is to what exactly? Carry MoCo establishment liberals, hope for a WaPo endorsement and prey that’s enough?

He’s only every won 1 election in his career and it was for a District 5 council seat in 2002 where he got under 10k votes. He then only served one term in elected office. Takes a lot of chutzpah to think he can be governor.

Tom Perez seems to have rallied all of the national party insiders to his side and he may be able to do some decent fund raising. But he has no justifiable reason to run.

How many elections had Larry Hogan won in his career? How many terms in elected office had Larry Hogan served?
