Democrats want to play a game of political chicken by running ads pumping up the worst possible candidate during the primaries while backing an image candidate for their side, who has only a faint connection to the state of Maryland, and is only using the office of governor to further promote and enrich himself, then sure, I'll play that game.

Voting for the idiot Cox out of spite.

It won't happen, but it would be most amusing if Cox actually won.

There must have been some polling showing Moore losing ground, because why else would he need Hilary to lead a fundraiser and Obama to cut ads for him this week? Seems like an impressive guy on paper, but I have not been too impressed with his campaign. Definitely preferable to Franchot and Perez, but perhaps Frosh would have been better if could have won the primary.

No, it’s more likely Dems want to keep the energy up and get a big turnout to prevent Cox from winning. Complacency at the polls is real.

There have not been any public polling to date showing this to be a close race. So the only reason why they would be worried about turnout or whatever is if there was a big change in public sentiment that was coming through internal polling. If that’s the case and Cox may even come within 10 points of Moore it spells bad news for Democrats nationally.

I don't think you understand how complacency works...

People see candidate A is up 30 points, they don't come out to vote thinking he has it in the bag. Candidate Somehow wins or is closer in the results otherwise. Its about keeping your base engaged.

Complacency does not eliminate a 30 point lead. Bad campaigning does. It should not require motivating people to turnout when the opponent is crazy and the sitting Republican governor won’t even endorse him. Maryland is not Virginia. It is not a “purple state”. Democrats don’t need to motivate base turnout to win. They need to convince Democrats not to vote Republican. That should not have been hard this election and yet, here we are with Wes Moore needing Hillary and Obama to get across the finish line.

I just heard Barack Obama doing an an ad for Moore on WPGC. Made me really stop and think. I mean, the WPGC listeners are pretty much guaranteed to be voting Democratic. Why in the world did they need to pay Obama to do ads for Moore?

Cox will get crushed, I have no doubt. Is there some doubt amongst the Democrats?

It takes Obama ten minutes max to cut an ad for a gubernatorial race. You don't take anything for granted when running a race, which is a big reason why incumbents act like it's the proverbial End of Days even when they're up 25 points.
