ST. PAUL, Minn. - November 4 could be the day a Republican presidential candidate won Maryland according to the chair of Maryland Women for McCain.

"I'm an eternal optimist. I haven't done the numbers yet," Patt Parker told PolitickerMD.com.

Parker - an at-large delegate for John McCain and president of the Maryland Federation of Republican Women - says the way Republicans' handled Hurricane Gustav demonstrated their sense of community. Sometimes people shortchange the GOP in this respect according to Parker.

"Individuals are the ones that we empower and encourage to go do things on behalf of others," she added.

Quote of the Day

November 19, 2008

In the long run, fiscal responsibility can and must be a watchword of our majority. For eight years, the administration lived by the proposition summed up by vice president Cheney, who said, 'Reagan proved deficits don't matter.' Businesses, consumers pursued that siren song to the brink of financial destruction - and some, of course, have gone over that brink. We are now experiencing the stark, painful reality that debt does indeed matter."

- House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer.
