The Glover Report (TGR): Camelot: Home of Wayne’s World; Over 3,000 in attendance:
To say the least, it was a virtual who’s who list of black Maryland politicos with some pretty heavy white folks in the room as well, including Janet Owens, Dick Hug, and Chip DePaula.
So, with a heap of the state’s black voting bloc on point in Prince George’s County, Montgomery County ceremoniously represented by Duncan’s presence and Baltimore’s first black elected mayor introducing the man of the hour, and add a sprinkling of Republican might – one can pretty much surmise that a war party is in effect.
After all, “It’s Wayne’s world,” said Schmoke.
Does This Answer Your Question, Mr. Steiner?:
At last, the truth must be told.
I was recently invited by Mark Steiner and Anthony McCarthy to appear on their radio show. The other guest was local media icon Richard Sher. Formerly of WJZ TV 13, Sher is now the host of a resurrected “Square Off” on ABC in Baltimore, thanks to Billy and Hassan Murphy. I should mention that one of my mentees, Ms. Catalina Byrd, has been holding her own on the show (Great job, Sister!). A remake which tantalized television audiences for years, the show featured intense political discussions featuring some of the most intriguing people of the day, including Georgia Goslee, Billy Murphy, and Madeline Murphy.

TGR: MD Poli10: African Americans: Who Will Lead Maryland’s Most Loyal Democratic Demographic?:
From the heights of Harford County to the waters of Maryland’s Eastern Shore – from the mountains in Western Maryland to the farmlands of Prince George’s County – a resounding question permeates my brain on the eve of the 2010 election year: Who will lead Maryland’s most loyal Democratic demographic.
In a 30% black state where people of the darker hue typically vote for the likes of a President Bill Clinton, a Governor Martin O’Malley and a President Barack Obama – I can’t help but wonder what ploys Maryland’s Republicans will come up with next year as the state elects or re-elects individuals to serve in the State House and Congress.

TGR: Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize Attracts Haters:
One Obama critic is former Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael S. Steele, who is now the chair of the Republican National Committee. Steele, who is black, could be considered Obama’s arch nemesis. At minimum, he could even be dubbed as the “Republican response” to Obama, America’s first black president.
Before I proceed, let me preface my next comments with the following: On a statewide level in Maryland, I was a huge supporter of Michael Steele.
