Getting into a debate over whether a Republican candidate supports a Republican President. Yawn. Too boring to even laugh at your comic stylings this time. Oh Oliver- your fear is showing again.

But what does that mean? Since Maryland is left-leaning does that mean we have to have yet another do-nothing politician? You mean pathetic like the Marylander who can’t spell Takoma Park? Your continued argument that Maryland is Republican-friendly territory is a testament to the echo chamber you all have built up for yourselves.

Not a bad ad, but something tells me that vilifying the "Washington Crowd" will fall on deaf ears since a major portion of Marylanders depend on Washington for their income.

Amazing that a pimply faced teenager living in his parent's basement knows what Marylanders REALLY believe. Ian, is English your second language? That's ok and everything, but seriously your last post is pretty unhinged and incoherent. Maybe Ian would be better suited to Garrett County than Baltimore.

You know Oliver has lost an argument when he goes on some tangent, usually about how racist his opponent is. Your debating skills are pathetic.

He hasn't moved away from Bush on any issues, unless you think his sneaky "anonymous" interview constitutes a policy shift. Maryland is a left of center state, even out in the far-flung burbs (you speak as if I live in the inner city or something, because as far as you know, thats where all the blacks like). Maryland is 2-1 Democratic registration, and even most of the Republicans here are not on the far right like Bush-Steele. Actually he’s on the far right, not a moderate but a winger like yourself.

Again, we get into the argument of you never being happy. When he's with Bush, there is something wrong, when he tries to move away from Bush -- on some issues -- he is doing something wrong. If you mean 'far to the right of Marylanders' because they are too far to the left, yeah, you're right. Maybe where you live, in the left-wing area near the district, he is far to the left, but around the 'burbs, we're content with him. If anything, Steele is a moderate.
