[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know who I’m not voting for.

Blair has no experience. 
Frick is a nonentity.
Leventhal has a nasty side and no leadership skills.
Krasnow has been involved in a lot of the planning choices I don’t care for and her mayoral experience is from a different political era.
Elrich is too far left and doesn’t think about consequences of his liberal actions.
Berliner is the best of the bunch but something about him rubs me the wrong way.

So I may skip that race and focus my energy instead on who to vote for in the CD6 race.[/quote]

The problem with Berliner is that he's clueless. He rarely asks questions or comments during hearings or meetings...because he doesn't know enough to add to or inform the conversation. He will be a train wreck.

Leventhal comes off as abrupt, but I think he actually does his homework and knows what he's talking about. My beef with him is that he talks out of both sides of his mouth and seemingly is afraid to take a stand.

Elrich isn't just plain awful.

Rose isn't impressive, but she might be our best bet. [/quote]

Agree on Berliner. He is the worst of the bunch in my opinion, in bed with all the developers. He did nothing to represent his district and acted like he was the County Executive. It was clear he had that ambition. Leventhal is so arrogant I just can't deal with him. The thing I like about Elrich is he isn't accepting development money. Berliner is already working hard to turn the county into a concrete jungle. I'll look more at Krasnow. I don't understand why this county can't get any decent candidates.[/quote]

Looked into Rose Krasnow. OMG. She’s a huge part of the problem we’re facing. The Planning Department sold out the County, especially Bethesda, at bargain basement prices and with NO or FEW returns for residents. Just more traffic — bad planning — overstuffed schools -/ bad planning. [/quote]
