Maryland Democrats, seeking to regain the governorship after an eight-year hiatus, have an exceptionally well credentialed field: two former Obama cabinet members, one who was chair of the Democratic Party, the state’s current comptroller and a former attorney general. The most striking resume, however, belongs to a candidate who has never run for political office: a Rhodes scholar and White House fellow, who with the 82nd Airborne division led troops in Afghanistan, a best-selling author who has financial experience and was CEO of a big antipoverty foundation. This is Wes Moore, one of the front runners in the July 19
Maryland pols will eat his lunch, if elected. Hogan was a RINO aberration to the string of Dems. Maybe he wins; maybe not. There are a few better known Dems in line, like rapacious Pete Francheot.

What is hurting Maryland. is the large amount of black Affirmative action Government workers who now live around Washington Dc. Refugees from a city that is being returned to whites, those who moved into the suburbs and vote Democrat because that is who provides them with Affirmative Action jobs and entitlements. The Counties surrounding DC and criminal Baltimore are in such numbers that the rest of the counties cannot beat them.
So the author of this is probably correct an Obama buffoon will probably be our next Governor.

Runs a NYC(not Baltimore) Anti-Poverty program, "The Robin hood Foundation" IE: "Steal from the Rich, give to the Poor", has many BILLIONAIRE/MILLIONAIRE donors,
(Robinhood though, stole taxes/tithes back from the tyrannical local Govt, and corrupt Bishop, and gave that back to the people who had paid it...in fact were already marked down as having paid so that the sheriff couldn't come back for more)
"There have been a few controversies. Moore’s book, “The Other Wes Moore,” was about a young man with the same name who is serving a life sentence for murder, contrasting the different support systems that led to such dramatically different outcomes. But he implied — and allowed others misleadingly to claim — that both grew up in Baltimore. He was born in another part of Maryland, moved to the Bronx and only later came to Baltimore for college.
He also is under some criticism for not correcting interviewers who said that he won a Bronze Star in Afghanistan. ( he was awarded other medals, but...)

Their claim to fame is they served under Obozo? Cripes, if it wasn't for Quid Pro Joe the Fraud, Obozo would still rank #1 as the WORST person EVER to hold that position. Dammed by faint praise...

Politico, with a Democrat campaign ad for Maryland governor, already apologizing for the controversies about to come up. Gee, even Tom Brokaw likes him.

If they are running as democrats no matter who they are or what they have done including leading our troops in Afghanistan then they are all communists who are out to destroy our country. No exceptions.

Sure sounds like Politico is still playing the Democrat tune of identity politics. This guy's main qualification is that he's Black, according to them. It doesn't matter that he knows not how to govern - he IS the B.O. Sequel!

Puff piece on a lousy Democrat. They can praise this guy all they want, but he’s still a Democrat, and a crazy one at that. I didn’t think Al Hunt was still around, but here he is, as bats-t crazy as ever.

How can anyone proclaim a Democrat winning in Maryland is a rising political star? If a Democrat wins the goobernor ship in Mississippi or Alabama, that would be a rising star.
