After losing the 2006 Governor’s race, ex-Governor Bob Ehrlich has flirted with running again, he’s embarked on listening tours, he’s asked the public if they want him back, he’s polled, he’s focus-grouped, and he’s pundited. But he still just can’t decide. This decision is really hard. And governing in tough times takes a lot of work.

We’re sorry Bob Ehrlich can’t make up his mind. So, we figured we’d take some initiative and start his campaign for him.  That’s why we launched www.bobehrlich.org today. The new website is sure to become the pre-eminent site on the former Governor, and a one-stop shop for Marylanders that are curious about what led to his fall and where he’s been these last three years.

WWW.BOBEHRLICH.ORG is an interactive website that covers all the highlights of Bob Ehrlich’s career, past and present.

  • The record spending increases he passed that would make even George Bush blush.
  • The priorities that defined his one failed term as Governor.
  • The special interest politics that have paid his salary and defined his career since losing in 2006.

For those Marylanders wondering why Bob Ehrlich lost in 2006, or what Bob Ehrlich has been up to the past three years, there is plenty for them to read, and watch. Ehrlich’s lobbying at Womble Carlyle, his violations of FCC rules for personal gain, taking a little cash from Venezuela Dictator Hugo Chavez, and his work for big tobacco and oil companies are all included in this new site.

The RNC has come under fire today for a document that leaked out of their recent meeting in Florida. Most at issue was a slide that portrayed Barack Obama and other Democrats in unflattering ways. But we think certain Marylanders (or at least one) are taking note today of what was not in that document.

On page 19 of the RNC document Steele and the RNC go through their targets in the 2010 gubernatorial elections. They seem confident about a lot of states – everything from Maine to New Mexico, Oregon to Tennessee, Michigan to Oklahoma, Wyoming to Ohio… OK, you get our point.

Noticeably absent… Maryland. In fact, Maryland was one of only three Democratic-held states the RNC is NOT targeting (New Hampshire and Arkansas being the other two).

With Bob Ehrlich an all but announced candidate for Governor, you would think he merits at least a mention? I mean, he is a former Governor, right?

Apparently not.

We could talk about why the RNC doesn’t think Ehrlich can win. Maybe it’s his embarrassing fiscal record. Maybe it’s his special interest ties. Maybe it’s his work ethic. But honestly, today we just feel sad for Bob Ehrlich. Snubbed by his Lieutenant Governor with the Ides of March just around the corner.
