Who will be Governor of Maryland after Hogan?

[Anonymous]

Will Republicans continue their streak and place someone else in office OR will the Democrats come back and win the seat?

He'd be a good choice.

Hogan is proving himself to be an asshole Republican and Maryland is sick of Republicans.

I hope Craig Rice runs.

I’d like him to run for County Executive and get Marc out if there. Craig is moderate by comparison. But he’d never win the Silver Spring/Takoma Park vote....he could win the gubernatorial vote though.

I moved to Maryland about 16 years ago and don't understand how a state dominated by Democrats for so long manages to have such a short bench of qualified candidates for governor. Ehrlich and Hogan aren't amazing politicians but even I (die hard liberal) had a hard time pulling the lever for Katherine Kennedy Townsend ("I have Kennedy in my name") or Anthony Brown or Ben Jealous.

Seems like I should be prepared for another candidate from the Democratic establishment who has spent their life in government and has all the inspiration of a dish towel. My wife will join a million other Democrats who vote for the Republican businessman who will be our next governor.

THat's because the Maryland Democratic Party has done a terrible job at stacking the bench.

I hope Rushern Baker runs again

Would be nice for supposedly progressively Maryland to finally elect a female or non-white Governor.

Because Dems love to whine, not to govern.

And it shows.

Martin O’Malley. He had a fundraiser at The Dubliner on Wednesday night but it was ruined when a Republican showed up.

He’s not. He’s super smart and gets complex policy. Most of the Councilmembers don’t.
