Why the personal attacks? I live in MD because Obama destroyed my job (DoD, ‘nuff said) and I could only find work here. Just like Virginia, most of Maryland is conservative. It’s just further down the death spiral than Virginia. There’s only three lib areas in MD: Baltimore, Prince George’s County and Montgomery County. But they’ve wagged the dog for the last 30 years. Meanwhile the rest of the state has emptied out as agribusiness and fishing jobs go away. The result is a deep blue state that won’t go Republican again short of an Ebola epidemic in the cities (MD does have USAMRIID, so there is hope).
I lived in MD for most of my life and it is finished. It is going on the way to rock bottom then it will change. I know its politics well and its GOP is mostly RINOs with the exception of Bartlett and Harris. But the demographics in the liberal parts of VA are changing. Look at the results in NY-9 and think about what is happening.
