[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who is the closest to Hogan?  I'm looking for a moderate! [/quote]

Kelly Schulz will literally be an extension of Larry Hogan, and has my vote over the clown car of a democratic field. [/quote]

Her major ding is that she’s a republican. Republicans like Larry Hogan don’t come by often. [/quote]

She is not at all like Hogan.  Hogan only won lasr time due to the untimely death of the Dem candidate. We aren't voting in Republicans again. [/quote]

Here is where I differ, and my comment isn’t directed at any of the current nominees for governor. I think “we”  should vote for the best candidate regardless of party affiliation. by only voting Democrat we got O’Malley and would’ve gotten Ben jealous. By refusing to vote Republican we would not have gotten Larry Hogan. I think that extreme political thinking or rigid political thinking is bad for the state.

At this point I don’t know who I think will be a good governor, I’m researching and trying to learn. [/quote]

I honestly don't understand Md's love for Larry Hogan.  And I'm not saying this because I'm a democrat (I am), but because I don't understand why everyone thinks he is so great.  He lied about the covid test from south korea, he violated the states open meetings act, he was found the violated the first amendment when he blocked people from his social media sites, and now he is trying to sell himself as some "not a republican" republican.  I honestly don't get it.[/quote]
We don't "love" him. We realize  it could have been much worse and we didn't have a viable Dem candidate. Kamenetz would've won, but he died. As for me, a Dem, I wasn't happy with what he vetoed in legislation,  but there were workarounds in our Dem legislative majority to overturn them.  He also denounced Trump, and was vocal about it....I thought that was great. He didn't lie about the tests, it was just a complete blunder, but at least he tried. He did block his social  media, but he got more grief from Trumpers than anyone. It was getting crazy. [/quote]

Sounds like we need to remind people that MoCo does not = MD.

MD does in fact "love" Larry.  His approval ratings are high, and he would probably cruise to a 3rd term if permitted.

The rest of the state (outside Bmore) is mostly red or purple.  People love Larry here[/quote]
