I find it very interesting that no Democrat running for state office or any of our Democratic senators or representatives has called for an investigation into the sexual-abuse allegations made against our Maryland state senators and legislators.

One would think after all the declarations of being on Christine Blasey Ford’s side, they would be falling over each other to force the leadership of the state legislature to deal fairly and openly with the many accusations by women. But to my knowledge, there have been no ads by any Maryland Democrat stating that they will believe and support these women in their accusations.

I wonder why. Is it because there is no political advantage for them, since they control the state? Is it because they would be demanding investigations into themselves? Is it because most voters in the state are Democrats and don’t care? Or is it because they only want to be seen on national TV and not the local stations?



Do they not really care for women, and do they have no fixed moral compass?
