Larry Hogan, Jr. made a smart move accepting public financing for his general election campaign. It frees Hogan from the time-consuming and sometimes humiliating chore of brow-beating friend, supporters and strangers for donations over the next five months. Hogan seized the high road and can blast the Democratic nominee, Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown, for accepting huge sums from special interests eager to “own a piece” of the next governor — or at least “buy” access when the need arises... He’s become the “good government” candidate running without the need to grovel for funds from vested interests that will demand their part of the quid pro quo later... He can focus exclusively on issues he wants voters to get “mad as hell” about — the Democratic and cover-up, the continuing spending-to-revenue deficit, continuing hostility toward businesses and favoritism toward Democratic special interests.
