Ehrlich Raises Over $725,000 In 18 Days

In his quest to regain the Governor’s Mansion, former Maryland governor Bob Ehrlich has raised $725,505 in just 18 days!  This 18 day total equals about 25% of what Ehrlich raised in the preceding 8 months.

Politics professor Tom Schaller said Ehrlich's 18-day totals show his campaign is gaining considerable momentum.

"Ehrlich is more competitive than before," said Schaller, associate professor of political science at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. "Money chases competitive candidates, as opposed to the other way around."

According to Ehrlich’s campaign, 98% of this 18 day total came from Marylanders.

That sure is A LOT of people trying to get ahead of the "I bribed you early and often" curve....But, of course, he (like every other lying, theiving, scum politician) will say "just because someone gave me $100,000 DOESN'T mean I will give them any special consideration when it comes to using my considerable power". Hey--- if someone gave me a hundred grand, I sure as heck would not be inclined to do anything for them either........ever.....under no circumstances....no way....

Brian Murphy won't win. Not the primary, certainly not if he ever managed to get into the governors race. Sorry, an ultra conservative isn't going to win in MD. He might win the Shore(seriously doubt it), but he simply can't carry a majority. I'd rather have Ehrlich then O'malley anyday of the week.
