"..Why hasn't the MSM asked if he is?"

They haven't asked because they already know who MD4Bush is. At least the WP does.

"My guess is that Ehrlich thinks there's a Democratic connection" to the Steffen case, TU mass communication and communication studies professor Richard Vatz said.

Michelle Lane's lawyer, Daniel Clements is the top Democratic lawyer in Annapolis whose clients included former Governor Parris Glendening. The personal attorney for a former Democratic Governor represents Lane. Who referred Lane to Clements and why did Clements take the case? His fees aren't cheap.

Among threatening letters the Governor received on behalf of Michelle Lane was one from Gilbert Genn. Genn is a former Democratic Delegate from Montgomery County. Montgomery County Executive Doug Duncan is expected to challenge Martin O'Malley for the party nomination in 2006. O'Malley is the subject of the MD4Bush/NCPAC private FReepmail exchanges that got published in the Washington Post. Duncan could only gain from the spread of O'Malley rumors, particularly if Joe Steffen (NCPAC) got blamed for it.

Democrats in the state legislature called for an investigation into Steffen based on his FReepmail reported in the WaPo. Yet they're trying focus the scope on hiring/firing by the Ehrlich administration, not on the exchange between NCPAC and MD4Bush, which would reveal the identity of MD4Bush.

So, yes, Ehrlich thinks there's a "Democratic connection". And he is right about that.
