“I don’t see Steny Hoyer going for it. He’s already pretty much running the House. Put another way, what would you rather be? The number 2 guy in the House or a junior senator?”
What about this Dem.
THOMAS V. MIKE MILLER, JR., President of MD State Senate
You're outside of my area of expertise... I live & work in south-central PA, near York. I faithfully listen to WBAL every afternoon, so I get my Maryland politics that way.
I was pretty impressed with the way Steny Hoyer was able to upset Madam Pelosi's master plan to install her mentor, the late John Murtha, as House Majority Leader. My impression -- and it could be completely wrong -- is that Steny wields a lot more power than the Media lets on. Similarly, Nancy is not nearly as powerful as some would have it.
then again, if martial law is imposed, they'd all be null and void for at least 6 months = hmmm. so if HE jumps ships, batten down the hatches.
