Democrats being democrats.
taxes, more taxes peasant! give us the taxes we demand to support us and those who don’t work but keep voting us back into office.
O’Malley, the governor of Maryland, is starting to make noise as a possible candidate for DEM nomination in 2016. He will most likely be on Hillary’s short list for VP.
He is an extreme Nancy Pelosi type “(c)atholic” politician that supports abortion and homosexual marriage. His schtick is that he plays in a band and acts all urban young yuppie returning to the city with his bike and water bottle as he recycles yada yada yada
There are Democrats in Maryland who would vote for a dog turd if it were running on the Democrat ticket.
When you would vote for a dog turd, you get one. Meet Martin O’Malley.
He didn’t take my county.Neither did Steny Hoyer or Obama.
Too bad we are so filled with Washington DC immigrants and not enough rednecks.

Yeah, this is what happens when Democrats own the state.
People are stupid and will probably believe it.
If you want to see the economy fall... tax internet sales...

I sure don't mean to quibble, Venturer, but the proper term is "dog obama."
I bow to your superior linguistic abilities.
Gouged at the pump for Owe'Malleys buses and choo-choos. I will buy some of my gas in Virginia from now on, when I'm down there.
Maryland "Freak State" PING!
Once SB 281 is signed into law — face it, it’s gonna happen —, Owe’Malley shouldn’t bother to run as President, because there will not be enough low-info voters to save him from all the angry gun-owners that will go to the polls to defeat him.
