A top Republican Senate candidate vowed in an ad to not always vote with his GOP colleagues should he be elected, which could rankle his party’s leadership.
Former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan – who was widely popular during his two terms in the now solidly blue state – claimed in a TV ad that ‘In the Senate, Republicans can’t count on my vote, but then again, neither can Democrats.’
‘If they want my vote, they will have to do what is right for Maryland, not one political party. That’s exactly what I did as your governor, and it’s exactly the kind of Senator I’ll be,’ Hogan said.
The blatant declaration that he would be thinking for himself and his constituents over the wishes of the Senate GOP could set up a showdown with the Republican leadership team if he wins.
But for now, leadership is backing his bid as they work to capture the majority back – including his promise to be a ‘different’ kind of politician.
Fat Larry has always been a lying DEM!
Although his attitude stinks and he is not a team player (at least our team!), I would rather have him than Alsohooks!
why call yourself a Republican if your a Democrat
Larry is lying again. Remove the n”t and you have the truth. He is a corrupt rino swamp dweller.
I don’t like Hogan…and his only shot is to run as a Never Trumper. However, while he’s likely to voice opposition to many of Trumps policies, the important piece is Supreme Court Justice nominees. He may be a vocal opponent, but in the end, he’ll vote yay while any democrat is going to vote nay. In a state like Maryland, that’s the best we can hope for unfortunately.
Really 4:39 ?? I must disagree with you on voting yay against demos. He will vote with them.
The difference between them is that Manchin is a hell of a lot smarter than fat boy larry
Anything is better than Hogan he only became Governor in Md because he cried the blues over his cancer diagnosis not ability. Did you ever hear anything ever again about the cancer NO it was a hoax! How many cancer patients do you see NEVER loose weight just gain and gain. LIAR! Leave this country be our immigrant tossed out!
