MUST READ: Does J. Millard Tawes still move the BPW?
By Politicker Staff
J. Millard Tawes Crab and Clam Bake: A political traditionThe Daily Record's Andy Rosen has a must read item on Peter Franchot trying to move the Board of Public Work's July meeting to the Eastern Shore in order for him to make the annual J. Millard Tawes Crab and Clam Bake in Crisfield.
The annual event takes place on the afternoon of July 16, at almost exactly the time the BPW will meet. At ther public session this week, Franchot was unable to convince Gov. Martin O'Malley and state Treasurer Nancy Kopp to agree to move the next meeting to Salisbury in order to be closer to the event.
But, as anyone who knows Franchot will tell you, he didn't stop there. Read Rosen's piece here.

Quote of the Day
October 9, 2008
"I am calling on Governor O'Malley to order his campaign to cease and desist with the negative attacks. It is my bet that the people of this great state are sick of the empty promises, tired of the lies, and ready to fight back against the corrosive influences of tainted money and Karl Rove-style politics."

Of course Franchot was
Of course Franchot was unable to convinced them. It is the only time of the year that BPW is held in the Treasurer's building. Why would Kopp give that up? Plus when was the last time anyone saw her at Tawes. Shoot O'Malley didnt even go last year. O'Malley knows Franchot's gunning for him, and with good reasons, so the last thing O'Malley will do is give Franchot a soapbox anymore than he has at BPW.
