What Would Bob Ehrlich Drink?

Funny column by Jean Marbella about John Giannetti:

The party switch isn't out of character: In April, when the General Assembly approved a one-year moratorium on the state's plan to take over 11 failing Baltimore City schools, Giannetti had told Mayor Martin O'Malley, who was pushing for the delay, that he had his vote. Minutes later, though, he voted with the Republicans.

In the past, he's also gone with Ehrlich and against the Democrats on a bill that would have enacted a state ban to replace the expiring federal ban on assault weapons. He also switched sides on a constitutional amendment to increase the General Assembly's budget powers, among the moves that led a fellow legislator to dub him "Senator Weathervane."

Still, "Senator Weathervane," sore loser, turncoat, opportunist - these are hardly words to shame a guy who appears shame-proof.

Meanwhile, I'm pleased to report that the Senator Speedo website is back in business.

Remember, sore loser Republicans don't go away by themselves: Check out Jim Rosapepe's website and see what you can do.

(Title fixed.)
