About a year ago I read an article titled `40 Best and Brightest" in which Cory Booker, candidate for Mayor of Newark, was mentioned. I immediately became intrigued by this guy. A Yale Law graduate and Rhodes Scholar obsessed with becoming Mayor of one of America's most troubled cities. What also flared my interest in Booker was his no nonsense style. Example - He lived in the projects among his constituents despite the fact that he was fairly well off and could afford to live just about anywhere.

Anyway, I stumbled over this DVD, Street Fight, and decided to purchase it.

I'm really interested in this guy, so I'd appreciate hearing some of your opinions on his life and career (especially from NJ residents). Read More

We need to step it up a notch and insure that both Martin O'Malley and Ben Cardin win one week from today. I don't know about you, but one week from today I want to celebrate a huge victory for both candidates (this doesn't have to be a squeaker). I'll be at the Hippodrome in Baltimore City and I want to celebrate that night, not three days later. 180,000 absentee ballots have been requested, but with your help, we can build a lead of more than 180,000 and thus insure victory on election night!

The numbers are on our side, but in order to take advantage of those numbers, we all need to stick together and work our tails off in the last week of the campaign.

Today the Baltimore Sun endorsed Martin O'Malley for Governor. In my opinion, the editorial was very well written and echoes my thoughts very closely.

Today on WBAL Radio (yeah yeah I know) Blair Lee (hack from the Gazette) mentioned an article today on the Ron Smith show that claims O'Malley is up 2%. The following article states otherwise, but not in a good way.

In what is probably the biggest blow to the O'Malley camp in the last several weeks... Today the Washington Post endorsed Governor Robert Ehrlich for re-election.

For the last month or so O'Malley has had the momentum, but over the course of the last week with endorsement after endorsement for Ehrlich, I cant help, but believe the tide is turning a little bit. That is why we need to stay focused and continue to work for and donate to O'Malley.

The latest from the rumor mill:

Governor Ehrlich will begin airing two new 'devistating' TV ads this week. Some have dubbed these ads as his 'Hail Mary' last ditch effort to win over some of O'Malley's supporters.

In this weeks City paper there was a great article on O'Malley and the progress Baltimore City has made under his leadership. Its not your typical article based on numbers and policy, but rather a first hand account from a city resident who recalls the Baltimore Mayor Schmoke envisioned and the Baltimore Martin O'Malley has built over the course of his 7 years in office.

Living for the City:

Now Gov. Robert Ehrlich is trying to hang Baltimore around O'Malley's neck like an albatross. The way Ehrlich plays it, Baltimore is the repository of all the state's ills, filled with lousy schools, crooked cops, and high taxes. Ehrlich thinks that he can carve out a hole in the center of the state at the end of the Patapsco River and claim that everything else that has gone well is because of him.
Me, I'm sick of people like Ehrlich bashing the crap out of Baltimore. He became governor, and since then has claimed credit for a whole host of things that he fought against. O'Malley turned a city around. That counts for a lot more in my book.
