Foolishly, Jessica McBride asks “Why can’t Van Hollen be more like Walker and Thompson”?

This is rich.  I'm not in the habit of reading Republican blogs but I happened on AM620 WTMJ talk show host Jessica McBride's blog and it became exceptionally clear that she's divorced from reality.
Clearly she's still smarting from her husband, Paul Bucher, getting smoked in the Republican primary against JB Van Hollen.  Her sour grapes [...]

Lena “I don’t return phone calls” Taylor asked me for money

I got a mailing today from State Senator Lena Taylor — the one that doesn't like to return phone calls.  You know the Lena Taylor who tells everybody how great she is at every moment.  Yep, the same Lena Taylor who stood up on the State Senate floor the day of swearing in and reiterated [...]
