What you should do is write an alternative TL of an alternative TL. What would have happened if Vice President Symington had not been assasinated? or something like that lol.

Who are the current Senators and Governor of Maryland?  Also whats happened with Al Gore?

Updated classifications for me

Great:Hoover, JP Kennedy, Hull, Kemp

Mediocre:Nixon, MacArthur, Dewey, Bush

Failures: MacFarland, Cox, Ashbrook

I don't think RFK can be classified due to the tarnish of the scandals in his administration as well as the shortness of his term in office.

I hope that a Marylander(You mentioned Franchot earlier) can be on the Republican ticket in 2004, even if its not at the top.

What exactly were Governor Franchot's guberntorial accomplishments and views in this TL?  Also is Bob Ehrlich still the Republican Governor of Maryland in this Timeline?

HappyWarrior,

Governor Franchot served two terms as governor of Maryland, and was hailed for three major achievements:

1) He modernized voting in Maryland and made sure each ballot has a paper trail to cut down on voter fraud which is rampant in Baltimore.

2) Cleaned up corruption in the state government, especially bribery scandals under Price George’s County Executive Parris Glendening.

3) Governor Franchot lowered the state income tax and vetoed a state sales tax, attempting to end Maryland’s reputation as a “tax-and-spend” state and save retail jobs.

Congressman Robert Ehrlich, a moderate Democrat, was elected Governor of Maryland in 2002, defeating Baltimore Mayor Kurt Schmoke, the Republican nominee.   


How did Ehrlich win the campaign in this TL?  In RL it was due to the corruption of Glendening's government and the ineptitude of the Kennedy-Townsend campaign.  But obviously neither of them is in the picture.

Probably the greatest timeline in Atlasian history.  Please tell me you'll be writing another soon.  Btw, I have questions on a few things:

Whats happened to Bill Richardson, Hillary Rodham, and the rest of the people who ran in 2008 in RL who were'nt really mentioned in the 2008 update?

Also who were the Keynote Convention speakers in 2008 in this Timeline?

It would be great indeed, if and only if Paul returned to the forum...

Or maybe you could continue yours? Wink
