ouch. Thank god there was no corporate giveaway. Oh wait there was (10 million).

Sorry if you are one of the ones who has to relocate to Reston (or, maybe not - I hear they like let regular people carry weapons or something).

"The move doesn't reflect on Maryland's business climate." Karen Glenn Hood.

Bull Sheite!!!

No big surprise. Maryland has a very unfriendly business climate.

How much money did Virginia give them? The reporting really sucked.

So she is acknowledging there is a problem- otherwise she wouldn't be saying a word about business climate....

When are these idiots in Annapolis going to remove their heads from their tails and realize they are the problem.

Instead of wasting a lot of money on a website I wish they had actually improved the underlying service. There is a lot of that going around these days.

The problem with reporting is that people really good with numbers and investigation will make more money doing something else.

My wife works for Bechtel...wont be a fun commute.

Wonderful. Not. That could devastate the area of Frederick around Crestwood Blvd.

Thousands of high-paying tech jobs were lost not long ago from all layoffs at the Northrop Grumman campus just south of BWI. Then Chesapeake Mfg (large contract mfr) in Hunt Valley when belly up. I know of another large contract mfr that is likely to leave MD now. This crap is getting out of hand. Leftists in the this state had better wake the hell up very soon.

One of my colleagues has a son who works there. He recently bought a house in Frederick. Yeah, this will do wonders for his commute. More than likely, he'll be selling his house soon and moving to VA.

Maybe she will come home and tell you stories of liberty and freedom to cheer you up! :sad20:

Brown's campaign could not be reached. Too busy crafting the next hit piece about guns...

helmetmike · Oct 15, 2014

The solution is simple. Vote for Hogan and replace every O'Money supporter in the House and Senate. Nov. 4th is the day to git-r-done.

The Libtards of Maryland HAVE woken up. They woke up and moved to Northern VA. That's why nova is going to hell in a handbag. :sad20:

Preaching to the choir, unfortunately.

The problem is that MD's news media acts as a fifth column. It will do its very best to protect its political comrades by inventing meaningless distractions and sweeping real news like this under the rug until after the election. The unwashed masses will probably fall for it.

Understood and agreed. It's why I won't move there. As leftists leave here for there, plenty of new ones move here from elsewhere to take their place. At least northern VA is building new businesses like crazy. The opposite is happening in MD with regards to businesses and high-paying jobs.

Hogan should stop dancing around the gun issue like a hot potato. He should say: if all you care about is (anti) gun laws, vote for Brown. If you care about jobs and the economy, vote for me. Those of you voting for Brown on guns, just remember, your jobs are moving to VA.

LoneRanger · Oct 15, 2014

I would rather see 1000 government jobs go away...period. Far too many direct government and government contract jobs is why this nation is dying!!!

MDFF2008 · Oct 15, 2014

And surprise, headline news about Hogan's position on gun control today.

Was being discussed on the forum last night. WBAL is rolling out a coordinated, anti-Hogan, advertising campaign for Brown under the guise of news "stories".

No, he needs to avoid the topic like the plague. While this message board wants him to come out and champion the 2A, hes trying to win the race, not appease 800 people on a message board. We actually need to stop talking about it as this site has been referenced on the debates multiple times from both sides so lets not do Brown any favors to add to his talking points.
