Rothenberg: MD-01 stays put
By Wally EdgeEsteemed political observer Stu Rothenberg made his latest
assessment of competitive House races on Friday.
Despite others' opinions, he considers the contest in the First District is not among the 63 seats "considered to be at limited risk for the incumbent party."
In other words, he thinks it'll be a snoozer.

When Stuey is done selling
When Stuey is done selling this year's prognostications at the bargain price of a two year sub for $345, he can tout gold in a bucket shop.
But it's OK. He'll wake up mid-summer and realize that the only place Andy boy is going is back to the OR to put some more folks to sleep at $5k a throw, which is a helluva lot pricier than the folks who went to his picnic who got to go to sleep for only $15.
And what Rothenberg will do when he realizes that the district is slipping away from his early call is leapfrog one category to be ahead of the curve.
And I won't even charge $345 for two years of my guesses from my cloudy crystals.
