[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are Democrats excusing Hogan?

He's far from moderate - most of his policies won't pass here in Maryland so he has to dilute them a bit. It's not how he wants it - it's that his hands are tied.

When swastikas were painted on local elementary schools in Montgomery county, Hogan wouldn't comment.

He lost an ACLU law suit for censoring all negative comments on his public FB site.

He takes money from the Koch brothers

He refused to let Syrian refugees come to Maryland.

He called teacher's unions "thugs" and cut public school funding

He has refused to sign protections for the LGBT community

What about this guy appeals to Democrats.

His PR team is amazing but he's really just a Republican who doesn't care about the same things Democrats (and a lot of Marylanders care about).

Hhahha..

Montgomery County swastikas (which appear to be teen general vandalism, not hate.. they also painted a huge penis) is a county not state issue. Leggett handled it well.

Public school funding is actually up. This was about which pot it comes from and level of effort funding.

What LGBT protections are lacking in MD? We're the first state to legalize same-sex marriage by referendum, for example.

I vote dem almost all the time, but I'm voting for Hogan again. He's moderate, and he's doing good  for MD. We have the Purple Line coming in; he's looking at relieving congestion on 270 and 495; BWI airport is now the busiest airport of the 3 in the area and has had a massive expansion; he lowered road tolls and dropped the monthly fee on EZpass; he used creative methods to increase tax revenues with no financial cost, by having schools start after Labor Day.[/quote]
