[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Registered Democrat from Mont County. Will vote for Hogan for number of reasons. 1) he’s the best candidate with most experience. Jealous and Baker don’t impress me. 2) He’s a Republican by name but his policies are truly more of a moderate. He hasn’t really pushed any strong conservative social issues and he knows where to distance himself from National republicans. 3) He’s more fiscally conservative than O’Malley who couldn’t find a thing he didn’t want to tax by the end of his terms 4) checks and balances in government. I believe government works best when each party had some power so I think he helps rein in some of the outlandish far left ideas that Md Congressman have proposed in past, [/quote]

Another registered from Montgomery County.  Will not vote for Hogan for a number of reasons. 1) He has been bad for Maryland schools, with his arbitrary calendar dictates that harm our kids' education while trying to boost a tiny part of his voting base in the Maryland shore, 2) He has not released funds that were due to Montgomery County for schools, despite repeated requests, 3) He did not speak out against Trump's Muslim ban despite repeated requests to do so and 4) He has not been aggressive in shoring up our private sector base (he didn't even call Discovery until the day before they announced they were leaving MoCo).

+1  Hogan hasn't done anything remarkable for Maryland.  I honestly don't understand why he's so popular.[/quote]
+1
And he hasn't said anything against Trump.[/quote]

That's simply not true.  For example, just last week he pulled MD National Guard troops from the border to protest the family separations.

Like him or don't, but lying about it doesn't help anything.[/quote]

No one is lying about Hogan's embrace of Trump.  He may have pulled the 4 MD soldiers from the border protest the family separations but that's only because we're approaching election season.   
Hogan:
1) Withheld funding from the Maryland attorney general to prevent them from pursuing the emoluments cases against Trump's international conflicts of interest (and lord knows, Trump is one big conflict of interest.)

2) Prevented the attorney general from filing suit against Trump's Muslim travel ban 
3)Refused to condemn the Muslim ban and removed comments from his facebook page from those who asked him to take a stand against Trump's Muslim ban.

4) Has done nothing to protect Maryland residents from the adverse affect of Trump tax cuts related to the reduction of SALT deductions
5) Campaigned vigorously for Trump lover Ed Gillespie.

But you just go on telling yourself that Hogan is a Republican in name only.
