Perhaps the best thing that can be done. is to let O'Malley win, and when the state becomes even worse than it is now- the good citizens of Maryland will vote everybody out of office. Then- we can start over.

Meanwhile if the state would enforce the internet user fee or internet sales tax- the state could reap about $600 million dollars in revenue.

A Republican Governor has the ability to drastically cut spending and there would be little that the General Assembly could do about it.; September 6, 2009 9:52 PM
