Mrs. Thompson and her wayward husband are both incredibly deplorable people. Their arrogance is surpassed by no one and their ignorance concerning political thought is so as well. Have you noticed that all of her campaign signs are in proximity to an Ehrlich sign? She's trying to go in on that man's coattails. Her personal attacks against my family are reason enough for me to hate her. Anyway, Roy was a congressman and he knows how to get things done. Vote Roy Dyson!

Cariblu;

You are right!! I don't think I have ever seen a more congested roadway due to all those ridiculous political signs. Like I'm going to vote for someone because everywhere I look I see their smiling face!!

If I have to look at one more sign with that "doufuss" Tommy McKay looking like he just swallowed my canary, I believe I will.....

If we had smarter voters, the candidates wouldn't have to put up all those signs to build their name recognition.

And, Dems, if you'll notice, most candidates tend to clump their signs in regard to political party. I think you have to get a permit or permission from the landowner - you can't just start plunking down signs all over the place.

It is not that I dislike Barbara Thompson- I have displayed her bumper stickers in the past- although,mostly out of dislike for her opponent.
However, Roy Dyson is pro-life, pro-education, pro-environment, pro-worker, anti-gambling, anti-stupid ferry idea and exhibits common sense.
Not only do I agree with him on these issues, I also appluad him for being strong enough to stand up for what he believes!

One that Dyson lacks in, is his respect for youth.

Please elaborate on that. Do you contend that the youth are do respect or wouldn't you think it is more of a case that they should earn it as everyone else does?

What has happened in the past is that Youth leaders would lobby Dyson in his office and Annapolis, and we would laugh and didn't take them seriously. While most delegates and senators did. Johnny Wood and Van Mitchell are two men who consider what youth say on issues that directly affect them. This race is basically the lesser of two evils and i say hey why not vote for Dyson...Things aren't tooooooo bad!

"LESSER OF TWO EVILS"

So, I guess we are back to choosing the lesser of two evils again!

It would seem that in all but a few of the local races, we are going to pick the candidates that we dislike the least as none of them are very good choices.

WHAT A WAY TO RUN A COUNTY???

I have never displayed a bumper sticker for BT and never will... This is one Republican that will vote for Roy Hands down. He is approachable and will discuss the issues with you. Don't matter to me that he is a Dem..he gets the job done and done right. I applaud him for putting the skids on that stupid ferry deal...
