Mikulski to endorse Rawlings-Blake Monday
Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake will pick up another high profile nod Monday-- Sen. Barbara Mikulski is slated to endorse her in Canton, according to the Rawlings-Blake campaign.
Monday's event will mark the second high-profile endorsement for Rawlings-Blake in less than a week's time. Rep. Elijah Cummings offered his support for her campaign at a press conference in front of Mondawmin Mall Thursday.
Mikulski will offer her endorsement in front of the Can Company on Boston Street at 9:30 Monday morning, campaign manager Travis Tazelaar said.
The campaign season is kicking into high gear, as the September Democratic primary looms a little more than four months away.
Former city planning director Otis Rolley and Greater Baltimore Board of Realtors vice president. Joseph T. "Jody" Landers III have filed to run, and state Sen. Catherine Pugh, Councilman Carl Stokes and Clerk of Courts Frank Conaway are all contemplating a mayoral bid.
And rumors remain that former Rep. Kweisi Mfume, who spoke eloquently at William Donald Schaefer's funeral on Wednesday, will enter the race at the 11th hour.

Wow. This is so important. Or to put it another way, Barb thinks its important. Because she thinks she's important. Note to St Barb: The White Ethnics don't live in B City anymore. Because of moron libs like you. You should change your name to B'brawne. As for the Mayor, I believe she is a classy and intelligent lady. She does not need a pandering has been Polish Pol who sold her countrymen out long ago.

Barbara Mikulski is a warmonger.
She votes for all war funding and doesn't care about the innocent people who have died for useless wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere

I would like to see the old guard endorse a new candidate for once. It never happens. Politics in Maryland is just a club for those in power to try and keep out new people and new ideas out.
Vote for change! Go Otis and Jody.
