Quote:I agree with many of the points stated. Hogan is not exactly an ideal conservative, but he chose to focus on "major" issues such as jobs, the economy, infrastructure, and taxation. He didn't fall for the same trick as most other politicians do, and he centered his campaign on trying to solve issues that affect everyone and not just a small minority. Issues such as abortion and gay marriage are just that. "Social issues". I personally am against abortion, and I believe that gay marriage should be left only for the people and the States to decide; but they should really have no place when it comes to mainstream politics.

 

Let the candidates debate the real issues such as jobs, the economy, infrastructure, and other "big picture" issues, and let's see who comes out on top then. There's a lot that Democrats, Republicans, and other 3rd party/independent candidates can learn from Larry Hogan and his campaign.
