    I lost all respect for Hogan when he stabbed Steve in the back and supported someone with four functioning brain cells as a pay back. HOWEVER,,,the alternative is ugly, so hold your nose and vote for Hogan.

    I have not much respect for Smigiel since he decided to run against Andy Harris. Because he wasn't more something. Mike was good where he was, then got a swollen head. Run somewhere you can help, instead of sniping allies.
    The animist towards Hogan is sick. He is not an ally of our side. But, he is our enemy's enemy. Where ,for the love of all that is holy ,the point of not voting for Hogan? You morons are ridiculously short sighted.

    Hogan is another John McCain: a Republican in Name Only that you cannot trust. I will be writing in Larry Hogan, Sr.

    You need to wake up too. What's the point of that vote? So Jellyous gets a lowered margin? If you want more taxes and even fewer rights, you make that stupid write in choice. But, if Jellyous wins, you and the rest of the"never hogan" crowd can own it.

    Ben Jealous, the Socialist Democrats, and the DNC thank you for your support.

    Ran across this earlier today. Fits quite nicely in the Hogan threads.

    Oh, now I understand. I thought we only had one governor, not three that we could choose to follow from day to day, depending on what we felt like eating for lunch. :rolleyes:

    Here's how to make the fast food franchise "analogy" work:

    There's a high-stakes contest among three fast food franchises, and only one of them will be allowed to remain open to serve the public. The other two will close all their stores.

    Burger King and McDonalds are the two big players, so one of them will remain open. The other one will close.

    But Taco Bell, the smallest, also will go out of business regardless of which of the other two gets more votes.

    The only role Taco Bell plays is to help determine which of the other two it will take down with it.

    The flaw in your logic is assuming that only either BK or McDs will remain open. If more people chose Taco Bell, Taco Bell remains open.

    That's one way to look at it.

    Another way is that there is literally more than one choice for governor. It is not a binary decision. The marketing arms of both major political parties have bought enough influence over a dozen or more generations to make you believe it's binary, though. It's easy to believe. Hell, it's all we hear in major media outlets, and we know it's spouted frequently enough by our own membership here.

    Continuing to buy into the false narrative of one choice only serves those in power, not the people.

    There is only one way to look at it: Either Jealous or Hogan will be governor, barring unexpected disqualification or tragic unavailability of one of them. Period. Mighty Mr. 1.5% will NOT be the governor.

    Jim, do you think there will be a difference in what follows, if Hogan wins by, say, 3600 votes, then there would if he wins by 36,000 votes?

    I will NOT be voting for Ben J., but may, or may not vote for Hogan.

    I think whoever wins, will win fairly comfortably, but I don't think anything will be different if Hogan wins big, or small.

    E, I don't presume to know which one of them will win, let alone what the margin will be. I think every single vote needs to be mustered no matter what the ostensibly authentic or push-polls say, even the day before the election. Things are far less predictable than even the so-called "experts" have predicted, and anybody who doubts it need only look at recent history. Anybody who wants to gamble or play the odds ought to go to Las Vegas and play with their own money, instead of everybody's future.

    Your statement is not based in fact, but presumptions.

    Fact: there are more than two candidates for governor, therefore more than one choice exists for voters.

    Facts are stubborn things.

    I can agree with what you wrote, but my question is do you think there will be a difference in what follows, if Hogan wins by, say, 3600 votes, then there would if he wins by 36,000 votes?
