Listen to the sounds of crickets chirpingO'Guvnah is a HUGE supporter of Hillary Rodham Clinton.  So is Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, the only Democrat candidate for Governor to lose to a Republican in 40 years.  But O'Guvnah is also governor of the state which is home to the NAACP, and some pretty powerful black politicians like his Lt. Governor Anthony Brown, Congressman Elijah Cummings, and others.

So what does it say when YOUR candidate suddenly allows her husband to carry the water on a racial attack on another presidential candidate for your party's nomination?

For O'Guvnah and the rest of the Maryland Democrat Party, it says little.

Rock on to some more reasonable members of the General Assembly, who have wisely introduced a bill that prevents the Motor Vehicle Administration from issuing a driver's license, state ID, or moped operator's license to illegal aliens.  House Bill 288 would require anyone seeking such a license who was before after December 1, 1964 to present proof of legal residence in the United States.

This one is easy:  Duncan Hunter and Fred Thompson, because they are out.

Both campaigns were huge disappointments in my eyes. Not for the ideas, but for the pure lack of organization and structure.  Ultimately, it was this lack of structure that doomed both campaigns.

Today's lesson on Day 27: O'Misery in O'Maryland is on Public Service Commission Patronage.  What is patronage?  for those of you who can't remember back to your high school years, or didn't pay attention, or didn't bother to go, patronage is the purely political act of giving government jobs to your political supporters.

It seems that as people read more and more in Fiscal 2009 Budget (that is the budget year that begins on July 1, 2008), we find more and more political patronage from the hands of O'Guvnah.

I've put two new links on the left column that link to Republican Delegates and Republican Senators and their emails.

Use it early and use it often to communicate with Republicans in the General Assembly and push issues that are IMPORTANT to you.

Don't forget:  we have a government of the people, not a people of the government.

Two bills -- one in the Senate and one in the House of Delegates -- have been introduced to legalize gay marriage in Maryland, guaranteeing a contentious fight on the floors of both houses.  There are over 40 sponsors -- almost 25% -- in the House, and nine in the Senate.

Personally, I think this argument will generate much more heat than light.  But even more, I think it is a waste of time.

I don't have a long post today, because I had a lot of work to do.

I just want to you consider one thing:  but for the increase in the gas tax, the average price of gas in Maryland would be below $3 now.

Yesterday, I received an informative email from my state Delegate, Wade Kach (R-5B).  It's titled Preview of 2008 Legislative Session.  The full text is provided for you below "the jump":

People who read me regularly know that I often refer to the The Baltimore Sun as the Calvert Street Communist Party Newsletter.  I thought it was about time that I suggested a new masthead more appropriate for the paper:

"Liberalism for All"
