Anthony Brown “badly off-track,” could lose governor’s race, writes respected commentator
ANNAPOLIS, MD – October 6, 2014 – Lt. Gov. Brown’s campaign is in trouble, writes noted political commentator and
former Baltimore Sun reporter Barry Rascovar in
a column for The Maryland Reporter
today. Rascovar aptly lays out all the reasons why Brown’s campaign is
“badly off-track,” including Brown’s inability to form a connection with
voters.
“[Anthony
Brown’s] professional staff has hermetically sealed their candidate in a
tight cocoon, isolating him from the media and all voters except the
most loyal Democratic groups,” writes Rascovar. “They’ve picked the
wrong issues to run on. Abortion rights and gun
control laws are settled matters in Maryland. Even Republican
gubernatorial nominee Larry Hogan Jr. agrees on that. The pocketbook
issues will decide this election — or as advisers to Bill Clinton put it
in the 1990s, ‘It’s the economy, stupid.’”
According
to Larry Hogan, “Marylanders want answers from Lt. Gov. Brown on so
many questions: What will he do about the $405 million revenue
shortfall, the looming 67 percent increase in property taxes, and the
more than 200,000 Marylanders out of work?”
“When in the world is he going to emerge from the ‘cocoon’ of which Mr. Rascovar
writes, break his silence, and give Marylanders the answers they deserve?” Hogan asks.
