It’s my personal opinion on them. Obviously, you’d take either over the execrable O’Malley, who is one of the worst Governors in the country (and certainly was just as execrable as Mayor of Bawlamer). If I recall, the only accomplishment that jackass could point to as Mayor was that he got a skyscraper built. One of the highest-crime ghettoes in the nation and he crows about a tower downtown.
When I talk about or grade Governors (think of them as mini-Presidents), I look at those who aggressively fight back (I mean substantively, not just with posturing, a big reason I’ve never cared for Perry - and his trying to talk tough on illegals is ludicrous given his long record on pandering to the La Raza crowd) against the federal overreach and daily encroachment in states and in our lives.
Too many Republican Governors just “manage” the decay/decline instead of taking a flame-thrower to the cancer. As a result, there’s not very many Governors I’m wild about. Probably the two I have the highest opinions of are Paul LePage in Maine (who literally does not give a $hit about the moonbat left/media and charges onward) and Scott Walker in Wisconsin (who took on the rabid unions and won).
My point is that electing Dems as governors doesn't work.
Many of these GOP governors like the two I mentioned do their best while fighting to not allow a Dem to take their places.
About Scott Walker, remember my exranormal video tribute to him,

But he will be trashed here while Dems do their best to take him out, just wait.
