[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clearly Riemer has realized that he has exactly zero future job prospects in the private sector. This is why term limits is important folks, unfortunately it also affects Rice who I think does a good job.

It's interesting that the Real Estate lobby in this county keeps putting up primary challengers to Co. Exec. incumbents. Last time if was Doug Duncan, funded by Real Estate/Developer money challenging Leggett. This time it is Riemer, who will likely also be funded and owned by the same folks.

This actually probably will help to ensure that Elrich is re-elected, as it will split the anti-Elrich vote. Elrich already proved last time that he can defeat other Takoma Park challengers.[/quote]

I'd think Riemer has as good job prospects in the private sector as anyone else, and probably better job prospects than Craig Rice, who has very little to show for his three terms on the County Council. In fact, I'm inclined to say that he has nothing to show for his three terms on the County Council, but I'm being generous.

Whether or not you like what Riemer accomplished, at least he accomplished some things.

The asphalt lobby liked Doug Duncan. They do not like Hans Riemer.[/quote]
See, this where you prejudged people (I won’t call you a racist, but you need to examine your biases) and don’t understand what you’re talking about. Craig Rice has a degree in Computer Science from UMCP. He’s has actual real life tangible skills relevant to today. He’s gonna be fine.

Rice has championed and been influential in promoting a lot of initiatives to ensure that up-county does not get left behind, both from his time in the Assembly and as a council member. There’s a reason he’s on the Board of the Universities at Shady Grove. There’s a reason there’s a brand new Holy Cross hospital in Germantown. There’s a reason why there’s an outlet mall in Clarksburg.

Anyway, not that Rice is perfect but you’re showing your *ss.

What are Riemers accomplishments? How’s Vision Zero going? Riemer is not capable of actually seeing any through. Getting the GGW endorsement is not going to go as far as you think. [/quote]

Those are Rice's accomplishments? He's promoted stuff? I mean, yes, I agree, he does promote stuff. He's a PR guy.

Speaking of the outlet mall and the Holy Cross hospital - did you know that Holy Cross hospital at MC-Germantown is the reason there's an outlet mall in Clarksburg? The land in Clarksburg was supposed to be an Adventist hospital, which would have been better for Clarksburg in many different ways. But Holy Cross made that impossible. So now there's an outlet mall instead. If Craig Rice were, in fact, the reason there's a Holy Cross hospital in Germantown and an outlet mall in Clarksburg - which he's not - that would be a huge strike [u]against[/u] him.[/quote]
