Heard that too, and I actually really like him.


I hope Craig Rice runs.

Hogan"s road projects are all in no-where's ville. He's done very little for the Baltimore area, in fact, hard to name any major accomplishments of his.

Moderate here. Hogan has been much better than O'Malley who never saw a new tax he never liked. Hogan is much more left than most Republicans. I like what he has done financially and he also realizes he works in a democratic state so he hasn't been overzealous in his plan or push very conservative social ideas. HRC voter but will vote for Hogan again.

+1 and he's going to spend billions on the purple line which has questionable ridership projections (but hey! Developers give great campaign contributions so it's a win-win for him).

He is incredibly stingy with funding the schools to the point that the public schools have no choice but to cut teacher positions, and special education has been hit particularly hard by the cuts. He is incredibly harmful to the children of this state and he is the sole reason the school system has dropped several places in national rankings.


But hey, people are paying less to cross the Bay Bridge so I guess that's more important!

+1 I have kids in MD public schools and I'm not voting for Hogan.

I get that Hogan has been relatively moderate (screwing over Baltimore and schools but not being in anyone's face about it) and if HRC was president then I'd say he'd be a walk for reelection, but the fact is with Trump as president we need as many Dem governors (like in Washington State) as we can get and I'll happily support pretty much anyone who runs against him.

But he doesn't support Trump. And he's been a great governor.

But I also hate trump and all his cowardly enablers, collaborators and lackeys more than I can even verbalize. I don't lump hogan in this group as of now but will be keeping a very watchful eye on how things play out.


I could have written this exact post. Hogan had my sure vote until about two weeks ago. Now it's time for him to step up and be the moderate and sensible public servant he claims to be.

And Connie Morella was a great congresswoman. But at the end of the day, a vote for her was a vote for Gingrich as Speaker. What else is happening matters.

Only in Montgomery County, the state is a lot larger than this area. He can't please everyone

If you do it twice a day like many people do it is a real cost savings. Oh how we forget there are other people in Maryland besides those on this board

??? You don't think the other counties have suffered from his stinginess toward education? We'll have 40 kids per class by the time he's done with a second term.

Whoever it is, I'm voting for them and not Hogan. Hillary voter here and I voted for Hogan before. So disappointed in his reaction to Trump I will not be voting for him again. And, I like him.
