Bob Ehrlich's tax & spend & corrupt - 2010-05-03 12:57:52
I'm looking forward to the fireworks as Republicansand tea party activists confront Bob Ehrlich's record of raising taxes, proposing the biggest spending increase in Maryland history, and running our state's most corrupt administration since Spiro Agnew:
