Chelsea Manning files to run for US Senate in Maryland
Chelsea Manning, a former Army private jailed for passing government documents onto WikiLeaks, has filed to run for the U.S. Senate in Maryland. Manning is set to run as a Democrat in the upcoming November elections, which puts her up against Sen. Ben Cardin, according to the filings first reported by the Washington Post.
Yep, Maryland has an opportunity to become the laughing stock of the world............ Just my opinion.......... YMMV

Isn't it strange that after a bombing, everyone blames the bomber, his upbringing, his environment, his culture, his mental state but … after a shooting, the problem is the gun.... Open your frigg'n minds, think about all the other tools that can be made into WMDs.
My wife told me to grow up. I told her to get out of my fort!
Heh, only one state over from me. We should get some good media coverage around here. I'll keep an eye out.
On that note, our outgoing VA governor said he'd deck Mr. Trump if he got the chance. Forget that this guy is the very definition of flaccid DC insider, shouldn't this be a major headline or something?
Let me out of this blue, over taxed, over regulated, cold, good for nothing state!!!! If it wasn't for the Mrs and family, I would have been gone a long time ago.
Not all of us here think blue. Just Baltimore city and around Washington.

I registered to vote at one of those "get out the vote" kiosks, and listed it as Republican. Never heard a thing. Pretty sure my registration had been thrown out because the local supervisory of elections office had no record of me.
So I voted in Florida using an absentee ballot. I could still legally vote in Florida because I still had my home there, even though I worked in Maryland for 2 years.
Not sure I can do the same thing now. I'm officially renting my house out in Florida, and now I live in Texas, so I'll probably have to vote in Texas if I want to stay legal. Sorry Florida... do me solid.

Sounds just like me here in California. It is the metro area around San Francisco and LA with many millions of people that out vote the 3/4 of rest of the physical state. well, at least we have the weather....and of course the highest taxes maybe in the country.
Ironic to me. If, President Obama hadn't commuted his/her/it's prison sentence, he/she/it would still be in Fort Leavenworth.
Thanks a lot................

Yeah, Maryland is trying to become the east coast California.
Wish I could leave. It's not much fun knowing that you vote doesn't really count (especially in a presidential election) unless its something that a Democrat wants as well.
I nearly shed a tear watching that video. But then I pulled the needle out of my arm, untied that rubber band, and went full on retard for Maryland's next great Senator! Whoo hoo!
Ok, had a brain fart. The five o'clock shadow threw me for a loop. I can only see that getting worse.
I resisted watching the video, but I knew I had to, sooner or later. He looks like Marilyn Manson's little brother. People can't be that stupid, can they? (never mind, I know the answer)
There is no doubt in my mind some very liberal people will vote for this traitor. I don't have a clue as to why except to upset the system. There's no doubt that every once in a while the system does need to be shaken up but, a convicted traitor?
Except for an asshat that had the authority to commute his sentence, this asshat should still be in jail.
Yeah, that's precisely how I feel about it.
