Unfortunately, there are very few Republicans in the Maryland state legislature.
Lets change that. This url has info for local, state and federal 2010 candidates accross the state. With links to their campaign sites.
Remember, Bush and many other republicans created the DHS in 2001/2002. This agency doled out grants for cameras left and right and this was while the GOP held both houses and the Presidency. They gave a grant to some town in the middle of no where AK to put 80 cameras. Don't think that electing a republican will stop the surveillance society from growing. At the very least it needs to be a non-establishment person.
If I were running for office part of my platform would be "privacy and civil liberties" (not including illegals) and I guarantee that would attract swing voters.
When people learn about this stuff they start hating it.
