I live in Bethesda. Only the developers want the Purple Line.

Really, people, let's hope he lives. I can't imagine the stress he is under at the moment trying to be governor with a cancer diagnosis.

Hogans base in the rural areas. He is just playing to his base and Baltimore/Washington is not his base.

I live pretty close to the proposed Red Line route. Not sure how I feel about this.

Democrat here who didn't vote for Anthony Brown. I agree. I think Hogan's been thoughtful and pragmatic.

But didn't he totally slash the funding for it? He doesn't want to be on record for having cancelled it, just handicap it so it never gets built. Clever.

What do you think? I have not been following the pros and cons of the Purple Line as much as other people. I wonder what affect this will have on housing values close to the purple line stations (I live new New Carrollton metro). I think with this and his decision about educational funding earlier in the year, Governor Hogan is making it clear he prioritizes the rest of the state at the cost of Baltimore and the DC suburbs.
