Dear France: Maryland is not Virginia

Agence France-Presse wrote this earlier this week:

Some Democrats have hinted they may favor a second stimulus measure, drawing sharp attacks from Republicans that the giant package approved months ago had demonstrably failed to create or save jobs and turn the US economy around.

"I think it's certainly too early right now... to say, you know, it's not working. In fact, we believe it is working," said Hoyer, who hails from Virginia.

Maryland is not Virginia. This column says so.
