[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of the activist crowd is going to be very disappointed that he’s going to be closer to Hogan on many issues than Ben Jealous. The man wants to be President. He’s not going to derail that being a leftist icon. He’s going to follow the Obama model. He knows Maryland better than a small group of Silver Spring activists. [/quote]

Hogan wants to be president, too. How's that going?[/quote]
I’m not sure how a Republican that repudiated Trump’s Presidential ambition is relevant. He was re-elected by large margins and has extremely large favorability in the state, which means that he’s widely popular with Democrats.

Your post indicates that you are a prime candidate for disappointment. [/quote]

Hogan will never be president.

The rest of the country has no idea who he is.

And Maga controls the party he is not MAGA.

Hogan is the same as the rest of republicans, he's no better. His kid isn't either.

No republcian should ever be elected again full stop. Treason. [/quote]
That’s the point. But a “Hogan Democrat” could certainly become President. [/quote]

Hogan is a Republican who would rather vote uselessly for a dead Republican than vote for a Democrat to beat a MAGA candidate. There's no such thing as a Hogan Democrat. Could a Democrat who voted for Hogan become president? That seems unlikely, purely on a numbers basis.[/quote]
There is no such thing as a “Hogan Democrat”? Then who was voting for his landslide reelection victory in a state that is overwhelmingly Democratic? Don’t need Scooby Doo to solve that mystery. [/quote]

I actually am a Hogan Democrat.  Voted for him, and would have done so again.  Did vote for Moore this cycle.  Moore versus Hogan would present a tough choice.  Radical moderate here.[/quote]
My presumption is that the responses from people who don’t understand the reference of “Hogan Democrat” is because they were not alive in the 80’s.

I would never have been a Reagan Democrat, but unlike Reagan, Hogan is not a right-wing ideologue. In another state like West Virginia, Arizona or Texas, Hogan could possibly be a mainstream, moderate Democrat.[/quote]

He is a right-wing ideologue. Just not a MAGA right-wing ideologue. Democrats who voted for Hogan paid attention to what he said but not to what he did.[/quote]
What views does Hogan have that make him a “right wing ideologue” that are not shared by at least one member of the Congressional Democratic caucus?[/quote]
