Governor Craig? Maybe it's no longer out of the question
Let me start out by saying that although I've known him for some 36 years and consider him to be one of the whip-smartest people in my sphere of acquaintances, I never considered David Craig gubernatorial material. That was until last week, when I...Tags: Regional Authority, Harford County, Democratic Party, Finance, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend

Missing Maryland's 'Voice of Reason'
The thought of Ron Smith leaving us so soon is still difficult to fathom. Up to and including his last show on Nov. 28, he was as entertaining, opinionated and combative as ever.

Cut 1 of 36
In the not so distant aftermath of the most recent penny per dollar increase in state sales tax and any number of hikes in fees prior to that, a new gas tax, or any other state tax increase this year, is an insult to the people of Maryland. Since... -
