“Dear Next Contestant” …The law of Maryland is pro-choice.
Dear Next Contestant –
Hi. I’m not entirely sure that a letter to the editor is the right place to talk about something like this, but it’s 2014 as my husband tells me, so here goes. My husband and I have taught our daughter, who is a high school student, to speak her mind and not to be afraid of an issue if it’s important and if talking about it is the right thing to do. This, I think, is one of those times.
For Steve Schuh, is County Executive a stepping stone to higher office or was it just a consolation prize?
Hi. According to the Maryland Board of Elections, Tea Party Republican Steve Schuh didn’t register to run for Anne Arundel County Executive until January 3, 2014. Keep that date in mind.
Is Steve a Schuh-in?
Steve Schuh is a sitting Delegate and the Tea Party Republican who is running for Anne Arundel County Executive. He’s running against former three-term Sheriff, Democrat George Johnson. I’ve been following the race, having grown up in Anne Arundel County and because it raises important questions about the influence of money on who we elect.
I’m guessing green is Steve Schuh’s favorite color.
“Dear Next Contestant” …$18 million?! No, no.
Dear Next Contestant –
Teachers in our county start at $45,000 per year. Needless to say, we need to attract and keep the very best teachers we can hire to make sure our kids get a good education.
“Dear Next Contestant” …$27.30?!
Dear Next Contestant –
Mr. Schuh is one of the founding members of the Legislature’s Tea Party Caucus – although it isn’t something he talks a lot about now that he’s running for County Executive.
“Dear Next Contestant” …What’s next, Steve, a tax on sunshine?
Dear Next Contestant –
I read in an article that Steve Schuh is complaining that we’re paying too much for what some people call the “Rain Tax” – and yet he’s a Delegate and he voted for it. Twice.
“Dear Next Contestant” …Steve Schuh On Property And Income Taxes
Dear Next Contestant –
Steve Schuh says he wants to lower my property taxes. That’s nice, as long as it doesn’t mean less money to pay my son’s teachers. I’m more worried about them leaving than our losing a few businesses to another county. Businesses come and go. My son has only one shot a getting a great education.
“Dear Next Contestant” …Steve Schuh’s 3% Solution
Dear Next Contestant –
Steve Schuh keeps talking about how he’s going to lower property taxes. And who doesn’t want lower taxes? He believes that’s somehow going to magically make our county more competitive with other counties when it comes to attracting new businesses and the jobs they’ll bring with them. Two things…
Reason #3B NOT To Vote For Steve Schuh: He’s consistent, to a fault.
As you know if you’ve been following my series that gives Anne Arundel County voters reasons not to vote for Steve Schuh, I live in another Maryland county. In today’s mail, I received a mailer “By Authority: Maryland Democratic Senatorial Committee Slate” that is in opposition to Republican Gail Bates, a long-term Delegate who is running for state Senate.
