  1. O'Malley builds on tax-raising legacy

    The General Assembly's speedy embrace of Gov. Martin O'Malley's income tax increases this week cleaned up a political mess in Annapolis, but the rate hikes could come back to haunt the Democrat if he seeks national office when his time in the governor's mansion is up.

  2. Editorial: End the ill-advised attempt to remove Dyer from school board

    While there appears to be little chance they will do so, we nonetheless urge members of the Howard County Board of Education to end their ill-advised attempt to remove Allen Dyer from the board.

  3. 'Money primary' pushes Obama to the left

    For most of 2012, President Barack Obama has been running in the Democratic primary. I know that seems odd, given that he's essentially running unopposed. Though don't tell that to West Virginia Democrats, who cast nearly half of their votes for Keith Judd, an inmate currently serving time in a Texarkana, Texas, prison. Mr. Judd received 41 percent of the vote. In 1968, Eugene McCarthy received 42 percent of the vote and forced incumbent Lyndon Johnsonfrom the race.

  4. Dick Lugar's warning for America

    The hit men of the tea party can carve another notch in their collective gun belts this week with the ouster of Indiana Sen. Richard G. Lugar, a 35-year veteran of the U.S. Senate. Whatever mojo the conservative firebrands had in the 2010 GOP primaries, when they ousted party moderates right and left, is apparently still working for them.

  5. Reports of the tea party's demise are premature: Just ask Senator Lugar

    The tea party's waning impact on the country's politics has been continuously reported since the movement's success in the 2010 elections. Well, the tea party has not gone away. In Indiana's primary election May 8, liberal Republican Senator Richard Lugar...

  6. The political columnist: Bitter lessons in the South

    I remember feeling trepidation when Jules Witcover and I, partners in writing our political column, joined <em>The Baltimore Sun</em> after the collapse of the <em>Washington Star </em>left us on the beach in August of 1981.

  8. Jules Witcover: Romney's presumption

    As Mitt Romneycontinued to build his delegate count for the Republican presidential nomination Tuesday night with five more primary victories, his new campaign slogan proclaimed: &quot;A better America begins tonight."

  9. Sun ignores GOP primary elections

    If The Sun doesn't believe coverage of primary races selecting candidates for a U.S. presidential election is news, what do the editors think is important ("Romney rolling toward the fall," April 25)? There was nothing on Wednesday's front page about...

  10. When elephants fight

    The last thing you'd think Maryland's Republican party needs would be a nasty internecine fight, but that's what it got at its annual convention over the weekend. Rather than unity in the effort to overcome a massive voter registration disadvantage, chronic fundraising problems and a frequent lack of competitive candidates for state-wide offices, the party became focused on a divisive race for an obscure position: national committeewoman. In the end, Audrey Scott, a GOP stalwart who has held a variety of elected and appointed posts, including a stint as state Republican chairwoman, was defeated by a heretofore little known, 37-year-old Baltimore woman, Nicolee Ambrose. Surprisingly, though, this development may actually be a positive sign for those who dream that Maryland could have a viable two-party system.

  12. Letter: Let Independents vote for Circuit Court candidates

    I agree with Mr. Kohn (letter, April 12) that one should not have to be registered as a member of a major political party in order to vote in a primary on Circuit Court candidates. However, I did some research and found that the current system of...
