Thanks, Ken5050.
I'll be fine - probably going to take some time to just RELAX, as this has been building for a few weeks though, until Tuesday, I didn't know where it was headed.
I did imbibe earlier tonight: A few Guiness draughts with some non-political friends.
I'll consider the MD weblog idea. The thing is, I expect to be pretty busy rather quickly.
"In an interview, Steffen, 45, said the postings were his. When asked if he was part of an organized effort to disseminate the rumors, he said, "No comment." "
The correct answer to this question was "No" but Joe apparently could not lie.
I see nothing honorable about this conduct other than handing the democrats an argument that the Maryland Republican Party plays dirty. The Governor dd the right thing but let's not comfort ourselves with the canard that this guy did.
The objective is to re-elect Ehrlich. I know him and his family very well and he is absolutely above this. But his reputation and credibility is harmed when he is found to associate with rumor mongers.
When you work for the Governor, you should know that you are his representative in all that you do.
P.S. Was Mr. Steffens the "source" for the original post on FR?
"You can own the MD politcal blog format"
