Naturally, O'Malley is very supportive of the existing School Board, despite its lousy results.

Why, if we looked hard at other issues, say crime, and associated incumbent city officials with the recent results which are abysmal on a national scale, then we'd also have to ditch the Mayo..... Oops!

I just listened carefully to the O'Malley campaign ad. Very carefully. It says "Martin O'Malley helped reduce violent crime and murders."


So did I. The operative question is to what extent improvement is attributable to him.

Not very.
