(snip)For an hour and a half, a moderator pulls questions from the audience of maybe 50 people, who fill the folding chairs with their nods, stares and half-hearted applause. Krish Vignarajah, tries to inject some enthusiasm into the quiet crowd on a Sunday in April. The orthodoxy out there is that no man can beat Larry Hogan, she says, pausing for emphasis. Well, I am no man, she rallies, her black slacks and gold-buttoned, white jacket looking every bit like a military uniform as if to say, yes, this daughter of Sri Lankan immigrant teachers will wage the necessary war to defeat the Republican incumbent.(snip)
The no man line is a fittingly nerdy nod to The Lord of the Rings, uttered by the shieldmaiden Éowyn as she strikes down a demon king, who might be as daunting a foe as Americas second-most popular governor.(snip)
Vignarajah has leaned into her femininity as a direct contrast to both President Donald Trump and Hogan. Her résumé seems perfectly crafted for the #MeToo era, as she was policy adviser for first lady Michelle Obama and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton but dont expect her to ride their coattails. I want to stand on my own two feet, she says, adding that she hasnt asked her former bosses for an endorsement. In November, she released a sexual harassment policy plan with the help of Ashley Judd, one of the first public accusers of Harvey Weinstein. (snip)
Yet Vignarajah is still searching for traction in her Democratic primary. I do think the ad has broken through, she says, noting that it had been seen by 1 million people. Still, she is mired in the low single digits in the polls against five other Democrats with the June 26 primary approaching.

I remember when Michelle was our queen.
I remember the many policies that Michelle, as our powerful, elected first lady, implemented on our behalf.
And this wench is responsible?
The short one is Krish. Is the tall one Dennis Rodman ?
The Sri Lankan lady LED POLICY FOR MICHELLE OBAMA. NOW SHE WANTS TO RUN MARYLAND.....but she’s mired in single digits against five Democrats gearing up for the June 26 primary.
Running policy for Michelle. Who never even held office as Podunk assistant dog catcher? Really! Ha ha. A NON-job if there ever was one. Bullsheet!
School lunches too?
What a disaster that was!
” Is the tall one Dennis Rodman ?”
It’s RuPaul. On his worst day.
So she's read The Lord of the Rings...
She's no Nikki Haley. Working for the obozos is a disqualifier.
Additionally, I dont believe any Dem has a snowball's chance in hell of beating Hogan this year.
No man or woman can beat Larry Hogan. Fixed it. And dont play the gender card. Its weak.
Seriously!! Shes running based on that as a qualification? Ridiculous.
agreed.
if she has any real qualifications she should put them forward.....whatever they may be, big or small....
and not try to run on fake bs
Incompetence wants another chance. Thanks simpson96.

She’ll do to Maryland what she helped to do to America - make it a third-world shit-hole.
No thanks, Ms. Incompetent. There are a lot better fools running for governor than you and at least I can respect some of them for not trying to destroy America.
Maryland "Freak State" PING!
