You've got to be kidding
By Wally EdgeHas William Donald Schaefer closed the door on running for Governor in 2010? Crazy as it sounds, friends of the former Governor says he has not. The 87-year-old Schaefer, a served as Mayor of Baltimore before winning the governorship in 1986 and 1990, and served as State Comptroller from 1999 until his defeat in the 2006 Democratic primary, has had some discussion about a primary challenge to Democratic incumbent Martin O'Malley. But even his allies -- the ones that are left -- say that while a Schaefer vs. O'Malley primary might be fun to watch, don't lose any sleep waiting for it to happen.

Quote of the Day
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.
