Here in this 2/3 Democratic state, Hogan has a 70% approval rating. Hogan is moderate, and has a completely Democratic legislature. This is the bluest state I've ever lived in. He has a regular guy appeal that a lot of people like, especially the paler ones. He moved the start of school back after Labor Day, and reduced the cost of our many toll roads, both popular moves. Good luck to Ben Jealous, I will certainly vote for him.
