I have a lot of politically active FB friends from Maryland through a political org, and many are pseudo-Zionists that have been touting this as an up-for-grabs race. Certainly never believed them until now though I still view Brown as easily favored. Just a little bit safer than Fallin in OK.
If a guy like Ehrlich couldn't pull it out in a year like 2010 (even against a candidate like O'Malley), I don't know how Hogan will do it in 2014.
Relying on Facebook friends to get a feel for a race is....how shall I say, not useful.
Anyway, Brown will win easily and Larry Hogan will be sent back to whatever dark lair he came from.
