Defeats lead to calls for Maryland Republican chief's ouster
After the sound drubbing Maryland Republicans received at the ballot box this month, a faction in the state GOP is calling for the resignation of state party Chairman Alex Mooney. The effort follows a race in which the state party not only saw most of...

The GOP lost because it's out of touch with the reality facing a majority of Americans today
In a recent commentary, former Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. exhorted Republican candidates not to whine about the allegedly liberal media ("How Republicans win in 2016," Nov. 25). Of course, a few lines earlier, Mr. Ehrlich whined about just that, saying:...Tags: Democratic Party, Parties and Movements, Journalism, The New York Times, Republican Party

If the GOP doesn't change, it will lose again in 2016
Former Gov. Robert Ehrlich is still whining about the GOP defeat in 2012 ("How Republicans can win in 2016," Nov. 25). He seems to think that next time the public will embrace the same philosophy that it rejected this year. Forget about helping the less...Tags: Pikesville, Parties and Movements, Republican Party, Politics

Change Maryland argues for change at state's economic development agency
A group formed by a Maryland businessman argued in a report released Monday that the state's Department of Business and Economic Development is a political marketing organization rather than the job-creation agency it should be. The department needs to...

Conservatives still getting it wrong
To me, Robert L. Ehrlich Jr.'s column on why conservatives should be proud in defeat indicates he just doesn't get what the majority of Americans want, including Marylanders ("Conservatives lost but can still be proud," Nov. 18). He listed a dozen...Tags: Religion and Belief, Korean War (1950-1953), Values, Ethics, Barack Obama

It's not easy being A.G.
Next time the president asks you to be attorney general of the United States, it might be best to politely refuse the offer. My reasoning: Modern day attorneys general are regularly torched by the Congressional opposition, particularly when that...

How Republicans win in 2016
Last week's column was all about why certain of us (49 percent nationally) continue to identify with the party of individualism and free markets. This week, a related topic: what it will take to increase that 49 percent to 51 percent in 2016. First,...Tags: Democratic Party, Elections, Arts and Culture, Customs and Tradition, Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Republicans make themselves easy to beat
I would like to thank Bob Ehrlich for clarifying what it takes to be a conservative in the Republican Party ("A platform for the next Republican nominee," Nov. 18). Having run on those principles, Mitt Romney lost. Having run on those principles himself,...Tags: Bobby Jindal, Parties and Movements, Republican Party, Politics, Mitt Romney

A platform for the next Republican nominee
Monday-morning quarterbacking is typically the preferred sport of the losing party. And the post-election GOP is no exception. The chattering class is full of explanations for Mitt Romney's loss: The candidate was too wealthy to be empathetic, too...

Bipartisan Maryland leaders advocate for debt solution
They haven't solved the nation's fiscal crisis yet, but an advocacy group forming Monday in Maryland already has accomplished another political miracle: bringing together the operatives of Democratic Gov. Martin O'Malley and former Republican Gov....Tags: White House, Democratic Party, Advertising, Elections, Wayne T Gilchrest

Gay marriage supporters seized victory after tough start
The two Baptist pastors didn't know a soul at Gov. Martin O'Malley's big breakfast for supporters of his same-sex marriage bill back in January. Neither had ever been in a room with so many openly gay people. "It was a different moment," said the Rev....Tags: Michael Bloomberg, Advertising, Elections, Brad Pitt, Justice and Rights

Republicans failed for a reason
Fact: The Republican Party's No. 1 goal in 2009 was to see that President Barack Obama did not get reelected. Opinion: The No. 1 goal should have been to do what is best for the country and resolve as many issues as possible as we dropped precipitously...Tags: George W.
