This site contains my issue stands and information about my personal background that help to make that difference.

Press Release - 8/10/10 The candidate who continually seems to want to spin my record as Commissioner struck again recently with his attack on my practice of taking one or two meals a month at one of our local senior centers.

Support offered for candidate Jim Rutledge - Letter to the Carroll County Times. 6/20/10 Since 2008 voters in Virginia, New Jersey and Massachusetts have expressed their displeasure with the policies of President Barack Obama. Will this be the year for similar voter anger to be displayed in Maryland? Washington-based policies seem to be oriented to ever-increasing spending and deficits. It is time to send a Senator to Washington who retains a love for freedom and a respect for constitutionally limited government and spending. We have a choice this year to elect a new U.S. Senator. I'm backing Jim Rutledge for this task. In fact, he's asked me to serve as his honorary chair of his Carroll County campaign... | |||||||||||||
