Marylanders are dumb for electing O'Malley. There's nothing wrong with being liberal, there is something wrong with being a dumbass.
O'Malley: Born and raised in Montgomery Co, somehow wins mayoral election in BALTIMORE, watches murder rate rise on his watch, fudges crime stats and numbers, fires 7 police commissioners in 7 years, comes from the same party that support the BGE rate hike legislation.
Decides he's going to run for governor: takes credit for all of Baltimore's real estate improvements (paid for with private money by private investors, NOT the city), sweeps the crime problem under the rug, sweeps the murder rate under the rug, blames Ehrlich for not handling the BGE rate hike properly, slanders HIMSELF using is own people and then accuses the Ehrlich campaign (MD4Bush).
And what happens? He is elected governor! Ehrlich, the former governor, may not have been all that a bag of chips, but he kept his nose out of small business and helped bring more into the state, created and nurtured programs to help homeowners (the More House 4 Less program is already being tailored back and O'Malley has only been in office 3 months), and generally did the best he can.
Who do we vote for? The "good looking" guy who can BS the best as has already positioned us for an exodus of business and massive tax hikes. All this while planning for his presidential run in 2012.
Why are we so dumb? Lets just fly our respective party flags while the whole world goes to sh*t.

Economy? The 200 years before Bush - Accumulated Debt: 6 trillion dollars, and we were paying it down.
The 6 Years of Bush - Accumulated debt 9 trillion - 50% increase in a period equivalent to 3% of the nation's history - that's some conservative small government.
Increased Pay? Sorry dear, we are not all CEO's and Wall Street wizards. Take that out of the salary mix and it does not look so rosy.
Home-ownership? A house of cards as mortgages go unpaid and foreclosures explode. But, hey the government didn't interfere with lending markets.
Terrorism? For the 34,786th time, Iraq and Saddam Hussein had nothing to do with 9-11, had no weapons of mass destruction, and had already lost control of a third of his country with no invasion. He was powerless to harm us and the Iraqi's could walk their own streets. What would it be if we had actually addressed Terrorism, rather than terraforming instant democracy in a fascist state with the lives of our Armed Forces and a spoonful of Wolfowitz miracle grow - better known as Neo-Con Wishful thinking.
My God. All of this since Bush. I never thought I'd miss Nixon.

Why don't they get what? You're not really giving the credit for those things to Bush, are you? You don't honestly think that by invading Iraq, a country with no relationship to international terrorism, and neglecting Afghanistan, a country that does, that Bush did us any favors, do you?
Why don't you get it?

I have lived in Maryland all my life. A self-made millionare that can't stand Libs or Reps. Libs can't make up their minds and Reps are to stubborn to change. If you are a clear thinker like me that doesn't care about Iraq or any other country but my own, come to the Independent side. You'll see it's not full of crap like the rest of them.

I love these bush-ites. I think at the last poll they were somewhere around 30% of the population. They've been marginalized and they don't even realize it.
Go back to the fringe where you belong.
