ANNAPOLIS (October 20, 2011) – Maryland Democratic Party Chair Yvette Lewis issued the following statement today after the State Senate and House of Delegates passed, and the Governor signed the Congressional Districting Plan.
“The map that passed today by an overwhelming majority of the General Assembly and signed by the Governor reflects the largely Democratic population growth over the last decade, creates more competitive districts across the State and is the result of Governor O’Malley’s open, fair and transparent process that took into account the opinions of community leaders, elected officials, and citizens. Democrats are prepared to run aggressive, grassroots campaigns in every district to ensure Maryland continues to be represented by strong, principled Democratic leaders in Congress. I am confident that our message of promoting job creation, fighting for the middle class and investing in the future, coupled with the out-of-touch policies of Maryland Republicans, will result in the election of more Democrats in 2012.”

Unfortunately, MESSAGES have yet to create a single job. Just WHO is out of touch?
Well said, Harvey. And as long as we sit on our hands, what Yvette said will continue to be true. She, and her ilk, must be thrown out of Annapolis!!

Fighting for the middle class? Jist who does this moron aand her fearless leader Omalley think their 15 cent a gallon gas tax will hurt. The fems like to say they are for the poor and middle class, but the want to hike the gas tax and anything else they can think of. It doesnt affect the rich, but it sure hurts the workung person. but they keep electing dems so I guess they like it.
She's had too much of the Kool-Aid.
I notice she didn't actually NAME any of the "strong, principled" leaders im Congress. I suspect it was because she doesn't really know any.....further, "redistricting' is a huge scam on the population. The people move, live and work where they please....the voting districts should NEVER be adjusted to insure certain parties or races get elected. Seems to me that is skewering the process or is racist, or both.
