For US Senate, no recommendation. This is pretty much the same situation as with Ehrlich vs. O'Malley. We like Mike Steele personally, and have no illusions about how Ben Cardin will vote if elected to the Senate, but then again, we don't know at all how Mike Steele would vote on national matters. He hasn't gone on the public record with gun issues, and his unscripted comments at events suggest he wants to sound like he can have it both ways.
Well, we just saw what happens when GOP officials are given freedom to make things sound like they can have it both ways. We had four years of the Ehrlich administration talking pro-gun while shutting gun ranges and squashing public issue advocacy opportunities. Mike Steele was surely a spectator to what happened on Bob's watch – nobody believes a LT Gov does much except run for the next office – but as an ostensible part of Ehrlich's administration, he should take a position. Either stand up and defend what your team has done or repudiate it. Then we'll all know.
Until then, our clinical assessment is the same as for the gubernatorial race. We can't advise gunowners that a vote you cast in this race will have any value to, or make any difference in, defense of the Second Amendment.
