[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]DP. I don't think she's great or anything, but in relation to the others running? She's a gem. Like Robert White has zero plans for anything, never does anything but talks, and wants you to believe he's like Marion Barry.

Is it normal in DC for politicians to WANT to align themselves with Barry? I'm not even talking about the drugs here, I'm talking about all the corruption and mismanagement.[/quote]

Marion Barry got elected by being a patronage pol and handing out government jobs (with pensions) to his supporters.    If you can capture the voting bloc who would like to return to those days, and garner enough of the white far -left progressive vote, then you can win the primary.   [/quote]

Didn’t Barry bankrupt the city like that?  [/quote]

Answering my own question:  https://www.baltimoresun.com/news/bs-xpm-1995-04-04-1995094073-story.html

Yeah it looks like Barry also seriously harmed DC's interests in becoming a state.[/quote]
