I believe that, unless Ehrlich is found in bed with a young boy or a dead girl, he is going to win this thing. I also believe that the polls don't show his real strength. I think that there are many blacks, and possibly many DemocRATs, who are not willing to admit to pollsters that they are going to vote for a Republican.

The Sun poll shows Ehrlich with a 4% lead. I suspect that it's more like 8%.

On Monday, Frank DeFillipo, the resident Yellow Dog Democrat on Ron Smiths radio program on Mondays at 5 PM, said that the Baltimore Sun's editorial board was "split right down the middle" on who to endorse. That's absolutely unheard of.

A very knowledgeable caller also said that he had not seen the enthusiasm in Baltimore that he was accustomed to and that Atty. Gen Ashcroft was taking a careful look at "political activists" (read DemocRATs) filling out absentee ballots at nursing homes in Maryland. He cautioned the "Activity Directors" at nursing homes that they might be facing a grand jury.

Illegal and fraudulent voting in Maryland probably runs around 11%. I wouldn't bet on Ehrlich until he is at least 10 points ahead.

I have been waiting patiently for the Sun to come out with their endorsement for governor. Here we are 4-5 days from the election and the Sun is silent. It's surprising since they have been out there with endorsements for every other local or state race for some time now, but not for governor.

The delay suggests that DeFillipo is right that the board is split or that the Sun editors may be leaning towards Ehrlich. In this case and in keeping with the good liberal/Dim rag that they are, they might hold up the Ehrlich endorsement to the last possible moment (maybe in the Sunday paper) which would minimize the potential damage to KKT (most Dims are not speed readers).

The momentum appears to be swinging toward Bob Ehrlich in these final days. I believe that the state is sensing that KKT is not the better candidate and change is in the wind. I just hope that the Dim voter fraud is somehow kept to a minimum.
