Politicians always dodge questions. Cardin was not very coherent on Iraq, for instance. Steele dodged some too but I don't think most viewers were scribbling flow sheets to grade the debate.

Maryland has been a difficult contest to play the horse-race game with. I think the polls are less valuable than in most other races and the outcome less predictable.
This could be like Va in 2005 where the Republican was predicted to win and where the Democrat won comfortably. I have a strong feeling it is going to be the same thing in MD exept the Republican is going to win comfortably. 

Can you give me one reason why Michael Steele will win in an election year where being a Republican is like "carrying a scarlet letter"?

Because Cardin is running a piss poor campagin. For Christ's sake I thought his campagin commericals were some type of comedy schame or joke at first. The man is a Democratic version of Jerry Kilgore.

Jerry Kilgore was a 20 year Congressman with vast knowledge of the issues? I also had no idea Jerry Kilgore was a Democrat running in a year where the Republican President is enjoying Carter like approval ratings.
