The Associated Press is reporting that there’s a winner in the Maryland Republican gubernatorial primary, to fill the seat of GOP Governor Larry Hogan, who is term-limited. AP: Dan Cox, a far-right state legislator endorsed by former President Donald Trump, won the Republican primary for Maryland governor on Tuesday, defeating a moderate rival backed by outgoing Gov. Larry Hogan. Cox will face the winner of the Democratic primary in the November general election. The top Democratic candidates include former U.S. Labor Secretary and Democratic Party chair Tom Perez, bestselling author Wes Moore and state Comptroller Peter Franchot.

Comments:

Republican governors in blue states are critical. Let's hope he can win in November.

It was about a 15-point win, and he won without running a single TV ad and without ever being mentioned by the news media except on election day, when the leftist media claimed they couldn't find Cox to interview. The only TV ad the media played about Cox, was a negative ad paid for by some demoslut organization with the entire ad all about the Trump endorsement.

Maybe Marylanders have finally had enough. If Youngkin could beat McAwful in Virginia, there is hope that Maryland will get it right this time.

Cox was supported by the Democrats. He will be easily defeated by the Democrat's candidate. Hopefully that will be Peter Franchot, who is better than the current RINO Hogan. Far right candidates cause a lot of losses for Republicans. It happened when Alexander Mooney defeated John Derr. Mooney quickly lost the next election. Democrats believe Cox poses a much easier general election match-up than Schultz would have. The Democratic Governors Association spent more than $1 million on television advertisements that highlighted Trump's endorsement and Cox's most conservative positions -- a tactic intended to boost Republican support for Cox but diminish his standing among moderates headed into November's general election.

I hope he can win in November, but Maryland has been a far left state for a long time. We'll have to see, but it would be a big change if he wins.

There's no great plan needed to defeat Cox or anyone else on the Republican ticket in statewide elections. The MD GOP had its heyday with Ehrlich and Sauerbrey. Both were sent on their ways when they tried to act a little Republican. It was no help that Baltimore County turned bluer over time, while Howard and Frederick counties regressed with their population growth. The game now is purely ideological, and the GOP can't win statewide. Hogan was an exception because he is a liberal Dem/RINO who grasped an opportunity in the wake of the O'Malley governorship. (Whatever happened to O'Malley's presidential aspirations? Seems like it's Hogan's turn on that stage.)

Realclearpolitics has MD as solid Democrat, and with a population of roughly 6 million (27% under 18) that leaves around 4.4 million voters. Would hope Cox could make the case of election integrity, by explaining regardless of what you feel happened during a pandemic where emergency powers were used instead of the Legislature making changes, it's pretty clear that we can do better with our election process and system. Drop boxes are the easiest since the technology is known. They should be just like an ATM machine with a camera, and one single envelope entry at a time which would be scanned upon entry. The envelope would be the one that was mailed to the voter. You could NOT submit a ballot without this envelope.

The media seems obsessed with a Trump endorsed Republican winning the nomination but is almost silent about the Democrat race. In all likelihood Wes Moore will be the Dem nominee. He's an Obamaesque political neophyte who needs to frequent revise his biography due to 'misunderstandings'.

#9 - After near than 30 years of residence in MD and involvement with politics and government, the Dems have no need to fix any elections to hinder Republicans. The MD GOP has no standing with the public. It is a gnat. Occasionally, the Dems do something so egregious that a Republican candidate can be competitive statewide. And if that Republican is "conservative" things will be taken care of as necessary. The best example is Ellen Sauerbrey in 1994. Parris Glendenning was the Dem candidate, a "spread it around" politician and academician. Sauerbrey lost a very close election. Later it became known that in Baltimore city cops at polling stations, who held the keys for the voting machines, tossed the keys on the table and announced they were going to lunch as the counting began. That's how it was done pre-Dominion. Cox coming within 10 points of the Dem will be a victory.

In case you missed it, or as we might say via text or on social media ICYMI, California Governor Gavin Newsom recently tried his hand at damage control. As you may recall, over the Fourth of July holiday weekend, Newsom ran TV ads in Florida bad-mouthing the policies of the Sunshine State’s Republican Governor Ron DeSantis. One ad began with, “It’s Independence Day, so let’s talk about what’s going on in America.” From there, the ad went on to promote Newsom’s approach to (chuckle) freedom. Thanks to a recent admission by Newsom, we now know his alleged reason for running the ads, a marketing campaign

The new leadership at CNN came in declaring that they wanted to get away from the biased journalism that has been the hallmark of CNN for the past few years. But it sounds like Don Lemon is throwing a bit of a fit over the concept of being an objective unbiased journalist — something he doesn’t exactly know how to be. He doesn’t think it’s right to be “fair” to Republicans, because he believes that Republicans are such a danger to society. Listen to the audacity and the lunacy of his twisted rant:

The term “Mama Bears” has been commonly used to describe the intense protective instincts displayed by mothers objecting to the targeting of their children by leftwing bureaucrats. It became widely used during last year’s Virginia gubernatorial election and the various school board controversies leading up to it. As education officials attempted to ramp up the indoctrination of Virginia’s children, parents, particularly moms, pushed back fiercely. The term “Mama Bears” soon spread to other parts of the country and the message was clear: Don’t even try to get in between a mother and her kids. We know that mothers can be deeply protective of their young children,

CNN contributor and Republican consultant Scott Jennings predicts that former President Donald Trump will announce an early Presidential bid to prevent Florida Governor Ron DeSantis from running in 2024. Jennings observed that given DeSantis’ popularity, specifically with conservatives across the country, he is a Trump-like figure without the baggage. Jennings said: “I definitely think there are a lot of Republicans out there who voted for Donald Trump twice, maybe gave him money, wanted to see him succeed who know we cannot drag the country and the party through this again in 2024, that he’s the least likely Republican to have a chance to win the White House …

Millions of children around the world grow up fatherless, and in America this phenomenon can be cited as a significant factor in the deterioration of both our culture and our society. Fatherhood, and more importantly fathers themselves, are critical. For those of us who were fortunate to have had a father who helped raise us, most can point to multiple instances of friction and conflict over the years. Fathers, like all human beings, are imperfect and the relationships they have with their children can be complex. Yet in most cases, particularly when the father is nearing the end of his life, bygones are put aside,

The nation’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve was created in 1975 after the Arab oil embargo caused fear and angry gas-station lines across the country. The underground reservoirs, believed to be the world’s largest, were intended as an emergency oil-savings account for an actual energy crisis threatening national security. The SPR was not intended for a political crisis when Joe Biden’s Democrats face midterm election annihilation over inflation and outrageous gasoline prices above $6 a gallon caused by the same president’s ideological war on fossil fuels. Biden’s announced “plan,” which drew considerable criticism, is to draw down a million barrels a day

There was a time, long ago, when actor Alec Baldwin was actually entertaining. His performance as a main character in the classic 1988 comedy Beetlejuice was solid, though Michael Keaton stole the show in that film. And Baldwin was adequate in the movies Hunt for Red October in 1990 and Glengarry Glen Ross in 1992. He was even decent in the terrific drama The Departed in 2006. Indeed, Baldwin had been blessed with good looks and enough talent to make himself a wealthy man with a robust career. But as we’ve seen with so many actors – consider Robert DeNiro, Susan Sarandon, and Sean Penn as examples – Baldwin’s onscreen success

The man who masterminded both successful presidential campaigns for former President Obama, strategist David Axelrod, has harsh words for the current Commander-in-Chief saying, “There is this sense that things are kind of out of control and he’s not in command.” Appearing on CNN’s “The Lead with Jake Tapper” Thursday, he added, “so, you know, this is a very, very fraught environment for him right now.” The first question that pops into my mind is, does this have Obama’s blessing? It’s hard to imagine that Axelrod, now a CNN commentator, would criticize the Democratic Party’s standard-bearer without running it first by his former boss.

Wednesday’s episode of the Laura Ingraham show on Fox News brought you the story of a new Disney+ series called Baymax, where a male-voiced robot at a supermarket asks a surprised female customer what menstrual products she suggests. Several others shoppers join in to help with recommendations, including from what all appearances is a male with a trans flag on his shirt. Ingraham points out that “Disney+’s only warning for the show is about flashing white sequences and patterns,” but gives no warning about the embedded trans ideology.

t just got easier to get into the Army. Now aspiring soldiers without graduations under their belts can still hang government-issued Sig Sauer M17s from them. Military.com reports that the U.S. Army is dropping its requirement for enlistees to possess either a high school diploma or GED certificate. This comes, per the outlet, amid an “escalating recruiting crisis.” On Thursday, the service announced that individuals may enlist without those previously required education certifications if they ship to basic training this fiscal year, which ends Oct. 1. To be clear, entrants still have to take a test: Recruits must also be at least 18 years old and otherwise qualify for a job in the active-duty Army.

Hunter Biden could reportedly be charged by the Justice Department for tax violations and lying to law enforcement about illegally purchasing a firearm, as the probe into President Joe Biden’s son comes to a head. Trump-appointed U.S. prosecutor David Weiss is deliberating whether to charge Hunter for “making a false statement in connection with Biden’s purchase of a firearm at a time he would have been prohibited from doing so because of his acknowledged struggles with drug addiction,” CNN reported Wednesday. As Breitbart News reported, Hunter may have lied on paperwork he submitted when purchasing a handgun in 2018 by not disclosing his drug additions.
