In a move that is quickly becoming “usual”, I have launched a new blog, The Not So Free State. Initially, the blog is geared toward Maryland politics because, let’s face it, a general political blog is a hard one to build and grow. There’s much more niche potential in Maryland politics. As TNSFS grows, don’t be surprised if I do try to spin my general political blogging from here into that blog.
Maryland is known as “The Free State”, whether officially or unofficially, but is far from it. The political landscape is dominated by political corruption, fiscal irresponsibility, polarizing race relations and now, a juicy Senate campaign between Kweisi Mfume, Ben Cardin and Lt. Gov. Michael Steele for Sen. Paul Sarbanes seat. Not to mention the journalistic atrocities of The Baltimore Sun. This is a good time to throw my hat into the ring.
If you’re into that kind of thing, come talk Maryland politics.
