[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's a mistake to consider an approval rating as agreement with views on policy. People like Hogan because he seems like a generally nice guy who has, generally, demonstrated that there is still one moderate Republican in elective office. But that's no reason to vote for him.[/quote]

People like him because he's competent and he gets things done.  As I said up-thread, for someone else to get elected, he'll have to make a major mistake AND the Democratic Party is going to need to put up a competent candidate that has state-wide support instead of just support in one or two counties.  Anthony Brown lost because he was incompetent.  It was his election to win and he lost based on the fact that his major signature work during his term as Lt Governor was to screw up the ACA registration site so badly that MD residents almost lost the opportunity to sign up for the Democratic party signature insurance plans.  The only reason he won his next election was because none of the other Democratic candidates had state-wide recognition and his Republican opponent was unelectable in MD.  Right now, there is no Democratic candidate that has enough state-wide appeal to beat Hogan.  The most competent is Rushern Baker and outside of PG County, he won't have a lot of support.  Same for Madeleno and Montgomery County.  None of the other candidates have any name recognition at all.  It's a year from the election and there is no front-runner or even broad appeal from the Democratic slate.  [/quote]
