Larry Hogan off to a nasty start?

Maryland's governor elect, Larry Hogan, won the game, and he doesn't want you to forget it.    

According to the Washington Post, Hogan decided to do a little in-your-face victory dance at a meeting for Montgomery County business leaders yesterday, telling leaders assembled in a Bethesda hotel:  

"Now, I realize that Montgomery County was one of the three lonely counties that unfortunately voted the wrong way from the entire rest of the state."

Hogan should head back to high school for a civics refresher course.    

There is NO SUCH THING AS A WRONG WAY TO VOTE.  The Constitution gives citizens the right to vote, but it doesn't tell them how to vote.  I know the Maryland GOP has been in political Siberia for some time, but we don't do Soviet style elections here Comrade.

He might also want to head back to an elementary math class.  Those three "lonely" counties accounted for 45% of the state's population in 2010.  Antagonizing them, or treating them as marginal isn't a winning strategy for re-election, let along smooth governing.

Let's hope that Hogan decides to take a political Tums to tame the acid associated with his foot-in-mouth disease.
