Helen Bentley's no-name opponent also got 20 percent of the primary vote, but no one's saying that this is a problem for her in November. This Fustero story is just the Sun's way of creating a story that can be characterized as anti-KKT when they start landing on Ehrlich with both feet as the election gets closer.
Besides, the Unitas story has blown the election off the front pages and the Maryland media won't be back to politics until after the funeral next Tuesday.
I will take good news when I see it. Also, the Sun story was yesterday (before the Unitas passing), so it was probably seen by many Sun readers interested in politics.
This is a copycat Washington Times article simply beating a nice refrain.
