>It’s unrealistic to assume Democratic control of the Senate alone can cure this sorry state of affairs, or that Maryland’s Senate race will actually determine Senate control. 
 
Ok, get out of here with this unsigned, Opinion page bullshit. EVERY Senate Race is critical for the Democrats this year, and you know it.  Hogan is a typical, self-dealing Republican, and the Dems need a full sweep.  Otherwise, we get the old obstructionist tactics that prevent much of the progressive change that can occur under a Harris administration..
